Actually at one point…
View segment →Let's see. Oh, we got problems, don't we? It looks like we successfully logged into Rumble and Locals, and it looks like neither YouTube nor X have gone live. What would that be, do you think? Do you think YouTube is cutting off Rumble? Well, you're all here and I'm here, so interesting. So it's just going to be Rumble and Locals today. Do you think I should try restarting it? What do you think? Probably not. If I get out and get back in, I think all it's going to do is start where it is. All right, well, we're just going to call that a technical problem. It's not going to slow us down a bit, but I just got demonetized, so we'll see if the show is any better once I'm demonetized. Oh, look, we've got some YouTube people coming in now. Oh, that's interesting. So YouTube's online. It looks like only X is failing. I wonder why. Don't know.
Good morning, everybody, and welcome to the highlight of your entire life. If you'd like this to go up to a level that you can't even understand with your tiny, shiny human brain, well, all you need is a cup or a mug or a glass, a tankard, a chalice, a demitasse, a canteen, a jug or a flask, a vessel of any kind to fill it with your favorite liquid. I like coffee. And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure, the dopamine hit of the day, the thing that makes everything better. It's called the simultaneous sip. And wow, it happens now. So good. So good.
Well, here's some science updates, and we'll talk about the DNC and Harris and RFK Jr. and UFOs and anything else you want to talk about. But just so you know, all the cool things that are coming according to Wired: mRNA technology could be used to make your damaged liver good again without a transplant. How about that? There's actually a technology that can heal a mouse's liver, not completely apparently, but it makes a big difference. So we might be on the verge of giving you new organs with a shot. Can you imagine that? "Oh, my organs are failing." "That's okay. Come here. I'll give you a shot." And then all your organs start rebuilding themselves. That's a real thing that might actually be coming.
Well, MedicalXpress publication says that there's some indication that THC, that would be the active ingredient in marijuana, reverses brain aging and enhances cognition in mice. Now, you know what I'm going to say, don't you? You know what I'm going to say. Now, I don't recommend marijuana for anybody because it's a medical product in my opinion. I don't think marijuana has the recreational value that people use it for, but medically it has some real uses. And they could have saved a little money because I will tell you that my own experience is that, well, I'm just going to say it. I'll say it as directly as I can. There isn't a chance in hell I would be meeting five deadlines a day, creating new content, without a little help. My aging brain would not be able to sit down every single day and write seven new jokes. I'm telling you, my own experience is that it's a brain enhancer, and to me it's obvious. Now, I don't recommend it. You should only talk to a doctor and don't drive a car, and if you're under 18, it'd be stupid to do weed. It would just ruin your life. So I don't recommend it. But on this one limited claim that they're talking about low doses, by the way, oh, this is important. They tested low doses. Now, my experience is that if you're a daily, let's say, medical user, you get used to it, and then what would be a high dose for somebody else is kind of a low dose for you. So it could be that I've been low-dosing for a while anyway.
There's a trailer for a movie. You know, the advertisement for a movie called the trailer. The movie is Megalopolis, but they had to remove the trailer because apparently it included some quotes, some praising quotes from critics that those critics never said. How do you think they ended up with a bunch of quotes from critics about their movie that they never said? Well, I don't know if there's a specific explanation of how it went wrong, but here's my guess. "Hey, ChatGPT, can you tell me what the critics say about the movie?" "Well, so-and-so says it's the greatest movie and it will change your life." Okay, and they write that down and they make the trailer with those quotes, only to find out later that ChatGPT literally made it up. Now, the story doesn't say that's what happened, but isn't it obvious? If you had to place a bet, if you've used AI, by the way, you'll know this. It does make stuff up. I ask AI about myself just because that's the easiest thing to check. It makes stuff up, things I've never heard of, awards I've never won. I mean, it's just completely fantasizes about people. So that's probably what happened.
But I have a standard for judging things like this and most other things. I don't believe in judging people by their mistakes because if you did that, you'd just hate everybody all the time. I mean, humans are just making mistakes all over the place. There's nobody you know who hasn't made mistakes that you think they shouldn't have. So instead of judging people by their mistakes, because nobody makes a mistake intentionally, judge them by what they do when they get caught or when trouble happens and how they respond. Well, here's how they responded. I guess Lionsgate is the entity that put it out. They said, quote, "We offer our sincere apologies to the critics involved and to Francis Ford Coppola and 'Megalopolis' for this inexcusable error in our vetting process. We screwed up. We are sorry." Almost perfect. Almost perfect. I will accept it as completely sincere-sounding, and they didn't look to blame anybody, did they? It would have been really easy to blame somebody. Nope. Lionsgate said, "Our mistake. We apologize." But there's one thing missing. One thing missing. Steve Jobs knew how to do this. The one thing missing is what are you going to do about it? What are you going to do so you don't do it again? So they said it was a mistake in the vetting process, but just this little bit of improvement would have taken them to A+. It's already an A-minus. It's very acceptable. I think they did a good job with it. But if they just said, "We're going to redo our vetting process," maybe even telling us what went wrong. You know, "We relied on an internet search. We're going to have to make sure that we verify things." Something like that. So always you should take full responsibility, but then you got to say what you're going to do to not make that same mistake again. That's perfect if you get that.
All right. YouTube apparently has some new feature that I'm also assuming is AI-driven, something they wouldn't have been able to do before, I think, which is they're going to allow you premium users, the people who pay to be on YouTube, allow them to skip sponsored segments in YouTube videos. Now, what would be a sponsored segment in a YouTube video? What it would be like me giving a commercial for a product, which I would never do because people would skip it. Now, would YouTube be able to pick out that this is not a sponsored product but rather my own product? And would the AI make a distinction? So when I say I've got a new book, and the main reason I do social media is so people could know if I have a new product, if I tell people about my new product, are they going to introduce a button so you can skip it? I don't know. Is the AI smart enough to know that this is my product and that's very different than a sponsored advertisement? I don't know. We shall see.
But the effect of that would be to actually destroy a huge bunch of people whose entire money comes from doing sponsored commercials on YouTube. It won't destroy it right away because people won't know the button's there and maybe the feature doesn't work perfectly and blah blah blah. And also you could always fast-forward a video. You always had that ability. But it might allow me to watch Joe Rogan stuff if it were on YouTube. I can't watch as much as I want. The Joe Rogan show is amazing. I can't get past the ads. I just, my life is too short. I don't have time for listening to a bunch of ads.
Anyway, here's something interesting. I saw a post from a user on X called Victorio who said, "In a few years people will not be able to function in society without a brain-computer interface." So that's sort of like the Neuralink chip in your head. And Elon Musk commented at some point having a Neuralink will be normal. And separately, Musk is predicting that in several years there could be tens of millions of humans who have a chip in their head, and that would be approaching normal. Do you think that's going to be normal? Do you think that in your lifetime all children will have a chip in their head? I think he's right. I think he's right. And the reason is that AI is too powerful to be separate from humans. In other words, humans are going to have to absorb the power of AI into themselves, and it might be the chip that allows them to do it. I don't know if there's any plan to do that specifically, but you could imagine all kinds of things that you'd want to do better and be competitive in an AI world. You just might need a chip. You might not even be able to hold a job unless you've got a good chip in you. Yeah, you could easily imagine in the future an employer saying, "We're only looking for people who have been chipped because when we give our new announcements and memos and stuff, we don't want to send it by email. We're just going to send it directly to the employees in their heads." Now, I don't know if that will ever be possible with a Neuralink, by the way. I don't know if it can. I don't even know if it's two-way in that way or it could be or what. But yeah, I think Musk is right. It is inevitable that humans will have computer chip interfaces in their head. I don't think there's any way around that.
Tucker Carlson has been, I don't know, do we say red-pilled anymore, about the chronic disease epidemic in America? Now, RFK Jr. and Nicole Shanahan have been, in my opinion, the primary message givers that the country is sick from our food, our pharma, and maybe other stuff we don't know what. But Tucker says, quote, on a video recently, "If you look at the rates of chronic illness in this country, it's destroying the country and it's an emergency. It's an emergency that I would say supersedes all other emergencies." Now, that's the key line. The key line is that that's the emergency that's bigger than all the other emergencies. That's like it came right out of my mouth or RFK Jr.'s mouth. I do believe that the food supply, Big Pharma, and maybe even the things that our media is doing to us are so bad it's just killing America to the point where I'm not sure we could even be a competitive country if we let ourselves be just destroyed by these forces. So the first step in doing anything about it would be acknowledging that it's a major, major problem. And I don't see Trump saying it and I don't see Kamala Harris saying it.
Why is it that Tucker and I and RFK Jr. and probably a lot of parents think this is the biggest problem in the country? And by the way, when I say the biggest problem in the country, I mean by a lot. I mean that whatever is number two isn't really even close to this because I don't really think we have much of a risk of a nuclear war, and I think climate change is sort of a long-term manageable situation. I don't think AI is going to kill us. Those are manageable risks. But we don't have really any effort whatsoever to stop the fact that our environment's killing us like crazy.
Now, I reposted Tucker's comments on X, but I wanted to add that you have to add mental illness to this because when you're talking about chronic illness, you aren't necessarily talking about the mental part. Now add the mental part. So take the number of people who have a chronic illness, one of the ones that we didn't get 100 years ago, that's just something about modern living, and then add to that the number of mental illness situations that are modern that also we didn't have 100 years ago. You get almost everybody. You get almost everybody. Everybody has at least a mental problem that you wouldn't have had before and at least one chronic illness that you never would have had before. So yeah, it's that bad.
But remember, I always tell you that we make this mistake of thinking that the brain and the body can be looked at as separate machines that just have some connection. And I say no, no, no. They're not separate machines. They're all just one thing. Your arms and your legs are what keep your brain healthy because if you get up and your arms and your legs take you into a forest, suddenly your brain says, "Ah, I'm a little relaxed now. I'm in a forest." So separating your body from your brain gets you all the wrong analysis.
So here's something to back that up. At Michigan Medicine, the University of Michigan, they found that mental health and chronic diabetes are strongly linked. Now you say to me, "Well, that's obvious, Scott. If you get diabetes, obviously you're going to be less happy." To which I say yes, that makes sense. But it turns out that the correlation works both ways, they think. So the study shows that your mental illness might cause your diabetes, but also your diabetes might cause your mental illness. But if your mental illness causes your diabetes and your diabetes causes your mental illness, you're kind of in bad shape if you get either one of those two things. So that's just more evidence that your brain and your body have to be considered one system.
All right. I don't know if you watched this. It was kind of one of these wonderful moments in live television, or was it live? I think live is when, I guess, Fox News cut Trump's feed off. I think they were watching him do a speech, so they cut it off and they went to the Gutfeld! show. And I guess Greg Gutfeld said on air, you know, since they cut off President Trump, he said, "You've got my number. Give me a call." So as Gutfeld is doing his show, his phone rings and it was Trump. Trump actually called him. He's on air. Like, "Give me a call." And next thing you know, he's on the phone live with Trump. He puts on the speakerphone and Greg has to tell him, you know, "The audience is here. Don't say anything embarrassing." And then the funniest part, the funniest part is that Greg had to do a show and it wasn't really the most convenient thing to have a half-hour conversation on your cell phone holding it up to your microphone on your chest. So he needed to get Trump off the phone. The best part about it is, have you ever had the situation where you're done with a phone call? One of my exes had a way to tell you that the phone call is done. You know, you'd be talking about some stuff, you'd be going back and forth, normal conversation. Then you hear on the other side of the phone, "Anyway." And then I know the conversation's done. Anyway. So Greg was doing his version of how do you get the president off the phone. And I don't know, that was the best part, is trying to give the ex-president of the United States, maybe the future one, the bum's rush off the phone. You know, once you've done your polite stuff, it's time to move on. Anyway, that was fun. You should watch the video.
I just saw a clip from Peter Thiel talking to Joe Rogan. I guess that interview happened several days ago, but I hadn't seen this part. And apparently Peter Thiel has this theory that the reason that so many compromised people seem to be in power, you know, people that you would assume there would be some blackmail on, you just, if you're paying attention at all, you look at our leaders and you say we got a lot of leaders that, in my suspicious mind and based on what I've heard and what I see, they all look blackmailable. You've heard me say that, right? I've said that a number of times. That they just have this blackmailable vibe to them, like there's something going on besides their political stuff that somebody could blackmail them for. And Peter Thiel seems to think that it's a necessity to get ahead. That if you're not blackmailable, the people who really run the country can't trust you. They need to be able to control you, and so they prefer people who have blackmailable things that the public doesn't yet know. Now, that would explain everything.
Now, when I say it, it sounds a little crazy, right? When I say it seems to me like they're favoring blackmailable people, it sure looks that way. But I don't have any evidence of that. However, when Peter Thiel says it, suddenly I think, was I right? But he didn't show any evidence either. It's not like there's some scientific study. But he is way more connected, I think, than I am. In other words, he would be closer to whatever is behind the curtain. And for him to say this really got my attention. It's certainly short of something that is confirmed, but it looks like it. And when your observations are so consistent over time, it might be confirmation bias, but it's certainly helpful to hear at least one other smart person who's well connected say that's what it is.
Well, let's talk about the DNC and Kamala Harris. By the way, I'd like to make an announcement. If you stay till the end of my show today, I've got a special guest, Beyoncé. And after she's done, Taylor Swift will do a couple of tunes. I told her to keep it short. And then George W. Bush will be here as my special guest. That's all completely true. Stop it. Stop acting like I just made that up. This is the way you handle a big event. I learned that from the DNC. Yes, the DNC hinted that there would be a special guest so that people wouldn't turn off the TV before Kamala Harris was there. And then rumors started online it's Beyoncé, but of course it wasn't. It's Taylor Swift, but of course it wasn't. It's George W. Bush, which was just stupid because of course it wasn't. But it probably worked. It probably kept their numbers up. The number of lies that come out of the Democrat side is just breathtaking. It's just everything all the time. They only got one mode.
Anyway, remember ex-press secretary Jen Psaki? She said on MSNBC that Kamala Harris, well, she was complimenting her, and she said that Kamala Harris is likable. She's very likable. If you meet her in person, she's got this likable personal vibe. It's so likable that Jen Psaki said that she's as likable as Hillary Clinton with her magical charismatic quality. So I saw a post from Eric Abinanti. He said that that should be the Republican slogan. The Republicans should run on the idea that Kamala Harris is as likable as Hillary Clinton. You know, as funny as that comment is, the thing that makes it funny is that it would actually work. If tomorrow the Republicans erased every commercial that they have, just dumped them all, got rid of all their signs, all their slogans, everything on their website, and they just went with one sentence, that Kamala Harris is as likable as Hillary Clinton, and never said anything else about politics, he could win. I'm not recommending it. It's not going to happen. But yeah, in my mind I say, you know what, nothing else makes a difference at this point. Everybody has a general idea which direction the policies would be in both cases. You could just say she's as likable as Hillary Clinton. I don't know how many people would register with that, but it worked for me.
I saw the Maze account on X say that the DNC is like one big support group for people who are imagining that Donald Trump has hurt them. Now, that is the best summary. It looks like a support group for people who imagined that Trump had hurt them but also imagined that he will hurt them again after the first time that they imagined he hurt them. That really does capture everything. If you had heard that framing and said we've got a convention of people who have mental problems and their specific mental problems, they believe that this one person, Donald Trump, has hurt them and he's coming back and he might do it again, that really would explain 100% of everything you observe. That one frame wouldn't leave out a thing. They do act exactly like he hurt them and he might do it again. I don't know what they're thinking, but they sure look that way.
Well, so Kamala Harris gave her speech. They made that same mistake they made once with Biden where they gave her a dark and foreboding background and put her in a dark suit. So she looked professional. She looked presidential but evil at the same time. I'm sure you can do a background that doesn't make you look evil. It could be done. I think I've seen Trump do it, for example. You have some nice lighting, got a nice light background, you know, you got a bunch of flags. She did have flags, but then she had this weird dark look that just looks sinister. Big mistake on the design people, I would say. But the only thing I learned from that is that Harris can still read because she didn't talk about policies, which Trump was mocking her for. She talked about her childhood. Don't care too much. And then she told a bunch of obvious lies and things that would get Republicans killed and divide the country. That she said Trump will set free violent extremists. I don't think there's any chance of that, do you? He said he would pardon the January 6 people, but do you really think he's going to pardon anybody who was violent? I doubt it. I would think that that would be an exception to his pardons. She said that Trump was going to jail journalists and political opponents. Well, did he ever say that? Has Trump ever said that he would jail journalists and political opponents? I've never heard that. Have you?
Now, the question of whether he should, I think, is in the ballpark of nobody's above the law. I mean, they lawed him beyond any reasonable level, and if he decides to lawfare them back, I wouldn't be terribly in favor of it because I think it would tear the country apart. But he certainly has a right to do it provided that they have done real crimes and it's obvious, right? If they haven't done real crimes, well, no, I don't want to lawfare anybody for that's what they did to him. It's what they did to some of us, you know, in a way. So she threw up all the hoaxes. Looked pure evil to me. I got to say that whenever I see Trump demonized this way as someone who would jail journalists and political opponents and set free violent extremists, it feels personal. Meaning that she's really painting half of the country, or I don't know, 40% of the country, as supporting this person, which sort of would make you that person too if it were true. I mean, I regard these as simply not true. But if you want to know how I take it, I take it as you're attacking me. I don't know. Do Democrats get that feeling when Trump talks? It feel like Trump is attacking them as humans? Now, I know that they don't like particular policies, but does he say things that make you think he wants you to be dead? Because when I read this, I think, do you want me to be dead? Would you think you'd be better off if I support Trump and you think Trump's so dangerous? Wouldn't you be better off if I were dead? So to me that's really dangerous rhetoric, and it gets worse. We'll talk about Nancy Pelosi in a second anyway.
To me the weirdest attack is that Trump is in it for himself. And it's the weirdest attack because it's the easiest one to debunk. Now, Trump has never done that. And I always wonder about that. Here's the easiest debunk to "Trump's only in it for himself." And this is something that Trump is good at, is putting it in the form of a question. If you put it in the form of a question, it's way more powerful. Debunk. And here would be the question I would ask if I were Trump. How could I possibly get anything that's good for me unless I do the best job for the country? You know, you're all watching, right? You understand everybody's watching everything a president does. I only have one path to get something that's good for me and the Trump family. I've got to do the best possible job for the country in public and let you watch it. Anything short of that is a failure for me personally. If you think I'm this big old narcissist who's only in it for myself, that's fine with me because the only way I can get anything that's good for my reputation or ego or family or even future income of the Trump family, the only way anything good happens for me is if I absolutely nail it in giving the American people what they want and need and deserve. So if you think there's some way I could benefit without you knowing it and it would be somehow bad for you, did that happen in the first term?
Now, of course people will say, but Jared, you know, went off and got a deal in Saudi Arabia. But he's not part of the administration and he's also not Trump anyway. So I'm surprised he hasn't taken that one on straight on.
MSNBC's coverage was entertainingly ridiculous. So Rachel Maddow looked at the camera and with great sincerity and emotion told her viewers this quote: "You will remember where you were." She's talking about the Kamala Harris speech. It was so powerful that you will remember where you were. "The speech tonight from the vice president of the United States, Kamala Harris, really introducing herself to the nation, you're going to remember where you were on this night. This was an inflection point in history." That's your news network, MSNBC. It all looks like just mental health, just screaming for help.
Well, how good are Trump's policies? Well, Trump's policies are so good that his opponents decided not to talk about policies when competing against them. They literally have to make up policies that are not his to have something to talk about. What's the top thing in the country? Economics. Do they go after Trump on economics? Well, good luck. The country thinks that he's better on economics, so you don't do that. How about the border? Well, good luck. Country thinks that Trump would be better on the border. How about international relationships? Good luck. Country thinks that Trump would be better on that stuff. So what do you have left? You make up stuff. Look at this 2025 book, Project 2025. These are all the things that Trump's going to do. No, he isn't. He already disavowed that book. He had nothing to do with the creation of it. He's going to round up all the journalists who don't like him. No, he's not. Nobody would be in favor of that. There's no Republican who would be okay with arresting journalists because they didn't say good things about Trump. Nobody, literally nobody would be in favor of that. No, that's not going to happen. So if you have an entire convention that lasts days and nobody can mention a real policy of Trump, they only can make up something so they have something to talk about, that's a strong campaign. I would love to be in the campaign that they can't talk about what you're really doing or have really done. They can only talk about what you haven't done or won't do. That's it.
Now, let's be fair. Does Trump do the same thing and mischaracterize the Harris policies? He does it transparently. So Trump will say something like she was in favor of this. He'll acknowledge that her current view might be different, but it's a sign of her character. Now, that's not what we're seeing from Harris. We're seeing that he's going to do these things. Trump says, you know, it's something you know about the character and she would probably bring these sensibilities into the office. And that's actually a fair thing to say because if you say we know what somebody's past opinions are and it's not that far in the past, it's reasonable to assume that they would bring that same mindset into the job. What Harris does is say the opposite of what Trump plans to do. So Trump will say, "I am not for a national ban on abortion at the federal level." What they say is he's totally in favor of a national ban. Well, that's the opposite of what he said. He's not going to change his mind on that anyway.
I saw a user named Dandy on X. He said the only thing I can gather from this convention is that somehow they managed to sell the idea that they're running against the people in office who are also the speakers at the convention. That's true. If you want to know how deep the brainwashing is, the Democrats ran against themselves saying that the things that they've been doing hadn't been working, so you have to do it some other way. And then they brought on as speakers the people who are the very people who hadn't been getting it done. And I thought, wow, you can really brainwash the public to believe absolutely anything. So it does seem to me that Harris is running against herself. And that's the weirdest thing I've ever seen. And even Trump said he joked about how she's had three and a half years to fix this stuff, so she's running against herself. She is.
Let's see how the political consultants, who we don't trust one bit because they're all in the bag for one candidate or another, let's see. Jonathan Chait, a well-known political writer, said, quote, "Kamala Harris gave the best acceptance speech I've ever seen." Well, that does raise the question of how many he's ever seen. Maybe it's the first one. But did anybody watch her speech and say that's the best speech I ever seen? She never even talked about policies, and all she did was lie in really easily checkable ways. And that was the best acceptance speech I've ever seen?
Well, there's this weird little event that happened at the DNC that's getting a lot of play on social media, and I don't know how to analyze this, but I'll tell you what people are saying. So there's a video of the Walz family walking onto stage to accept the applause or whatever, and there are four of them holding hands. So there's two children and the parents. And there's a point where Walz seems to take his son's hand and sort of yank him almost angrily. Now, it's a very hard-to-spot thing. If you were watching it live, you probably wouldn't have noticed. But on video you can see it a little more dramatically. So maybe it looked completely different live, but it's hard to explain because when you see it you say why did he do that? Because it didn't look like the son was not walking in the right direction. I mean, they were holding hands, but he gave him like the yank, almost like a little, it almost looked angry. But there was nothing to be angry about that we could see.
Now, it needs to be said that his son, I don't know what the right words are, about special needs, would that be the right phrase? So son has some mental health problems, I guess. And when you add that to the fact that it looked like his father angrily gave him a yank in his hand, I'm not sure that that's what happened, by the way. So I think I'm going to be, I'll talk about it as a story, but I think I'm going to maybe surprise you a little bit and I'm going to back the parent on this. So there's plenty of stuff for not liking Tim Walz, like politically. If you don't like his politics, there's plenty to work with. So you don't need to dig too deep to find reasons not to support him as a future vice president. But since we can't know their relationship, we can't know, we can't read his mind, I will tell you that the son did not react in any way that looked like it was a problem. He didn't react to it at all. So I feel like maybe it's a little creepy to insert ourselves into that relationship. Whatever Tim has done to raise two kids, that's not going to be my point of criticism. We don't know his situation. We don't know the son's thinking. The son is clearly very much in favor of his father. I mean, he was crying with tears as his father was accepting the nomination. So the kid himself looks like a really sweet kid, and I don't think that he was any the worse for whatever happened. And it could be that it may have been as simple as dad was getting his attention for something, you know, just make sure he kept him in the game. So it might be the video makes it look worse than it is. I'll give you two opinions that seem like they're contradictory but maybe not. When you see it on video, it's disturbing. So don't get me wrong, I found it disturbing. But there's too much we don't know. And so to complete the story in our heads, that's a little too far for me. We just don't know what that was about. But it raises a flag. If you said it raises a little flag, I'd agree with you on that. But I won't go so far as to say that therefore he's beating his children or something like that. No evidence of that.
All right. MSNBC's Joy Reid was talking about the quote "men of the Democratic Party," and she said they were portraying something that she called 21st-century masculinity. And some of the other MSNBC hosts were talking about it. And the idea is that they're defining what a real man is. So a real man is not, you know, Dana White with his muscles and his success and his confidence and his swagger. Who needs that, right? They're saying that a real man is somebody who can support a woman to be their leader. So a real man is somebody who takes a secondary position to a strong woman in this case. And all of those supportive, caring, empathetic things that women do, a real man is going to be strong but also have these other characteristics. Here's my take on that. It ain't a man if you have to explain it. Should I go on or is that enough? If you have to explain it, it's not a man. The most obvious statement of what a man is is you can tell when you look at it. If a woman has to explain to you that that's a real man, I'm sorry, that process doesn't work. How about when I see Trump take a bullet and get back up and yell? I say to myself, that's a man. Did anybody need to explain that to me? Nobody needed to explain it. No, that was right there. Now, I'm not saying that everything that the quote real men do is acceptable and legal and appropriate. Not at all. But I never wonder who the real men are. If you need to explain it to me and make an intellectual argument for who the real men are, well, that's sort of a tell.
Anyway, here's what Nancy Pelosi said. I'm roughly paraphrasing her. She said that Trump is a threat to democracy, threat to freedom, and she likened it to a Thomas Paine and Lincoln situation. And I said to myself, Thomas Paine? Wasn't he the guy who said we need to pick up arms against our oppressors? In fact, you know, during the Revolutionary War. Lincoln? Interesting choice. Wasn't Lincoln the president who was shot because he wasn't popular everywhere for freeing the slaves? Is Nancy Pelosi giving the public permission to kill this guy? That's what it looks like to me. To me this looks like how you activate somebody like Thomas Crooks, somebody who's maybe not the greatest at understanding the world but can be weaponized by being told that if they would just do this one horrible thing, you know, shoot Lincoln at the Ford Theater, you'll be maybe hailed as a hero. To me this is encouraging violence at a level where I ask myself, where is the guideline on that? At what point is that literally just invoking violence? I believe you can get kicked off of X if you encourage violence. Am I wrong? That would be one of the things that free speech has a somewhat acceptable limit to it. If you encourage violence, you get kicked off the platform, which is why I tell you as often as possible I'm against violence in every context. Sometimes you can observe it and sometimes you just know that it was inevitable, but you can't encourage it. My interpretation of her comments are that she walked right up to the line of encouraging the worst kind of violence against a political leader. Well, I guess they're all bad, but one kind affects the whole country. So if I had to judge Nancy Pelosi and Kamala Harris on their ethics, it would be the lowest grade. There isn't a grade below this unless you're actually murdering people yourself. But getting right up to this line and knowing you're doing it, this is obviously very intentional. That's the most disrespectful, disgusting, unethical, immoral thing you'll ever see.
Now, let's check ourselves. Does Trump do this? If Trump does it too, then I'm going to say to myself, oh. Now, Trump does talk about illegal immigrants in a way that makes you say, is this going to cause people to do violence against illegal immigrants? Has it yet? I'm not familiar with any story in which an American citizen did some violence to an immigrant because it was an immigrant or because Trump said something. I've never seen it. So it does seem that what Trump does is talk about something we can all observe. We can observe the people are coming across the border. We can observe that some number of them murder. So when he talks about that, is that encouraging violence or is it encouraging us to defend ourselves from violence? So I think Trump is still in the clearly acceptable range of discussion. I don't think Pelosi is, and I don't think Kamala Harris is when they talk about he's stealing your freedom and stuff and being an insurrectionist. Some of it is just normal political talk. If a candidate says, oh, they're taking away your freedom, that alone isn't going to cause violence because it just sounds like political talk. But if you pair that with, well, he did try to take over the country once and he's this unstable crazy narcissist, he's a psychopath, doesn't care about anything but himself, if you start adding it all together, he sounds like somebody who's literally really dangerous in the real world, which he's not as far as I can tell. So that's that.
All right. RFK Jr. I believe I heard that Trump has a secret guest today at his rally. And we heard that RFK Jr. has pulled out of Arizona from the presidential race, which you wouldn't do if you were planning to stay in. So the rumors seem to be pretty strong and consistent, and we don't see any denials when there's plenty of time to deny. For example, Nicole Shanahan has not made a denial, and it looks like something's going to happen. Now, I'm going to stop short of saying that the rumors are true. So the rumors are that RFK Jr. is going to endorse Trump, and in return would get some role in the government. I think it's going to be less than that. I'm not saying those things won't happen, but I think by today's rally it might not be as strong as that. It might be a little circumspect. So it could be, for example, I'm just speculating now, it could be that RFK Jr. doesn't want to do an unambiguous, complete endorsement of Trump because that might be too far. I mean, the reason he was running against Trump and against Biden at the time was because he thought the two candidates didn't have the goods. If he had from the very beginning thought everything Trump was doing was the good stuff, he wouldn't have run.
So here's what would make me feel like honesty had happened. Because I'll tell you the one thing that I most appreciate about Kennedy and Shanahan: I don't think they lied about the other team. Can you give me any example? Have either of them at any time said something about the other candidates that you said, well, that's just a lie, that's not true, you just made up something so you can complain about it? I don't think I saw it once. Did any of you see that? Did any of you see anybody in the Kennedy-Shanahan campaign say anything that was an insult to any American or something that was a clear political lie? Now, you have seen things where people interviewed Kennedy and accused him of lying in the past about vaccinations and stuff, and then he gives his explanation and you can check for yourself. But I haven't seen him get caught in an actual lie. I've seen things interpreted that he said that he had to clarify, etc. But it's very unusual to have somebody, well, two candidates that are that completely honest about what they want to do and what the other people want to do.
So here's where RFK Jr. could find an honest middle ground. It's not going to look honest if it's an unambiguous endorsement of Trump. I wouldn't buy it, honestly. I wouldn't buy it. It would look like that looks like a guy who wants a job or something. I mean, it just wouldn't sell. Here's what I think he can say: "President Trump and I do not agree on everything, but the Democratic Party has turned into a monstrosity, and the president's approach to border control and some other issues which I consider the important ones are far stronger than the other campaign. And the Democrats have just completely fallen apart, and you just can't support that anymore." Now, that would be completely honest. We don't agree on every policy, but there are some big, big things in which Trump gets it right and the other side just can't be supported with what they're doing. It's just too dishonest, etc.
Now, I don't think that anything will happen in terms of a promise of a role in the administration unless it's something general like, you know, "I hope you could work in my administration. Well, you know, maybe we can find a way to be productive." You know, so it's going to be some generalities about that. But I hope Kennedy is completely transparent about this not being an embrace of all things MAGA. And then I think that he's a hero. So he's already a hero in my mind. You know, the important place, all the important things happen in my mind, not in the real world, but in my mind. Kennedy and Shanahan are heroes because they did make this chronic illness medical situation a top conversation. And if endorsing Trump can make it an even higher priority, that's hero stuff. That's hero stuff. That's even better than president, in my opinion. If he could pull that off, it would be one of the greatest feats in American history, you know, where you're moving stuff in the right direction. And he got there without lying. Amazing, really.
So what else has happened? Trump says he's not, he didn't want any intelligence briefings which he could get as a candidate if he wanted, because he's worried that he would get a briefing about some secret stuff and then the secret stuff briefing people would leak it and then everybody would think that Trump leaked it because they'd blame him. So they tell him something, they'd leak it, and then they blame him for being the leak. So Trump says that's what he's worried about. Is that a realistic worry that any briefings would be a setup to say that he leaked it? I think so. I think that is an actual legitimate worry. Now, I don't know if that's the reason he doesn't get them. He might think that they're fake, for example. The intelligence people, some of them have said out loud that they don't think they can trust him with the real intelligence and that they would give him like intelligence light, you know, the stuff without the good stuff. If he knew that the only intelligence that they were going to give him was the obvious stuff and that they weren't going to tell him anything good unless it was a setup, yeah, there was no reason to be briefed. You know, every time Trump shows you a new version of reality, you say to yourself, why didn't I see that on my own? Here's the version of reality. Remember, you used to think that watching the news was useful. It's not. It's all lies. Remember when you thought science was honest and if the scientists agreed that pretty much guaranteed it was true? Nope. No scientist agreeing doesn't mean anything. What about, you know, so basically the news is fake, the data is fake, the science is fake. And now Trump is telling you that intelligence briefings are fake. If I'd heard this 15 years ago, I would say that's ridiculous. That's ridiculous. But now I think, oh, obviously they're fake because they don't want to tell him the good stuff. So of course they're not going to. They said it. I mean, you know, some of the top intelligence people have said it out loud. We'd be afraid to give him the good stuff. I think Brennan said that. So yes, Trump would get nothing he didn't already know because they would leave out the good stuff and it would just be a trap for them to say that he's a leaker. So he's completely right. Not so much that the leak part is the important part, but that the briefings would have no value. What's he going to do with that? Is he going to change his policies because he heard a secret thing? Probably not. Yeah, what's the point of it?
So every time you think something is important and then you find out, I thought my whole life this was important, and then you find out it's not, it's just a mind spinner. My mind is still spinning about the fact that it's true that national security briefings for the guy who's likely to be the next president wouldn't have any value. Like, that's hard for me to get my head around. But I do believe that in this specific case, I believe it.
Meanwhile, the Georgia state election board, they passed this new measure for the elections that the number of voters casting ballots must match the number of ballots counted. What is the story? Is the story that the new procedure is that the number of voters has to equal the number of votes, or is the story that it wasn't true before? Apparently the number of voters didn't need to match the number of votes. How about that? So there's your most secure election in American history, where the number of voters didn't need to match the number of votes until now.
Now, here's my second question. Was this only an issue in Georgia? Was Georgia the only place where the number of voters didn't have to match the number of votes? Let me tell you as clearly as possible. If the filter you put on our election system in terms of how fair and unrigged they are, if the filter you put on it was the experts told me it was completely secure, oh, you're so lost. You're so lost. How about take it up a level? All the experts agreed that the elections are too hard to rig. It's very fair. That doesn't mean anything. All the experts agreed. All the experts didn't check the machines. All the experts can't even describe the system in every state. How would the experts know if somebody hacked into it and was so good at it they could get away with it? What expert would know that? Here's the filter you should put on it. Not the experts said it's true. Put the Dilbert filter on it. All right, so you know what the Dilbert comic is. It's about mass incompetence being normal, not the exception. So that's the Dilbert filter. Mass incompetence is universal and normal. It's just that big companies are good at hiding it from their customers because the customer might just see the product. So if you apply that to the Secret Service guarding the president, suddenly everything makes sense. Now, there is a question as to whether they were extra incompetent intentionally. That's still an open question. But incompetence can explain just about everything you see in the news.
And when I look at the elections, you've got 50-plus different entities handling elections. You've got hundreds of people, maybe thousands involved in every state. They don't do the job every day as paid employees or a lot of volunteers. So they have to be retrained every time. The process for the election itself changes every year. For example, this new Georgia procedure is new, so you'd have to train people on that. And I could go on and on about the complexity and the number of people involved. But when you have this level of complexity, you have that number of people involved, they're not the permanent employees, they just come in as needed for an election, most of them. Every part of that screams that there isn't the slightest chance that we even know what's going on in the election. It's the same filter I put on climate change. Yep, there are all these thermometers around the world and we've got all these crack employees in different parts of the world checking those thermometers. No, there's no situation in human history in which you could make that work. That being a big, complicated thing where you've got different technology in different places and the environment's changing and the heat islands are moving and they're all different countries and different languages and they're checking these thermometers. All about half the time they don't even check. Do you think every single time in some other country the person goes through the junk and then writes down correctly the numbers from the machine, the thermometer? Or sometimes do they say, ah, it's probably the same as last year, I'll just bump it up 0.1. And then you get paid the same whether you looked at it or just said you looked at it. Now, maybe there's some logs where they would get caught if they did that, but who checks the logs? So my point is, whenever you see any system that's vast and has lots of people involved, it's always a mess.
With those of you who have experience in large organizations of any kind, can you confirm this for maybe the other people who don't have this experience? If you've worked in any big entity, would you confirm that they're all just a disaster? If you know what's happening behind the curtain, they're all a disaster. It's just that over time some of these disasters can produce an iPhone and then you say, wow, industry is awesome.
All right. So Kamala Harris is trying to be pro-Israel and pro-Palestinian, but apparently she can pull that off because her customers don't care about anything except not having Trump in office. Yeah, I think we should stop pretending that anybody's influenced by the policies except a handful of independents. But people who would go to the DNC or even watch the DNC, they don't care what the policies are. They just want less Trump. That's all they need. So yeah, Harris is pulling off the I'm for both sides. Okay.
So who's going to get the boost from the DNC? So you'd suspect the Democrats would get a little boost, but it's working the other way. The polls might show a boost because I think most of the polls are rigged at this point with oversampling of Democrats. But the betting markets turned negative on her. So when she should have been getting a boost, the people who had actual money to put on it, they said, I think we trust her a little bit less by the end of this. So that's a pretty expensive event to put on to reduce your credibility anyway.
Now, the Daily Wire says the betting sites have moved in Trump's direction. They think part of it could be that revision of the jobs thing, 88,000 jobs revised, which means that the Bidenomics wasn't working nearly as well as they've been claiming. And now we know. And the other part might be the Kennedy alleged potential endorsement. So the betting markets might be ahead of reality there.
All right. There's an article on X post, as in from Saul Sadka. The Democrats rarely have Republicans as romantic partners and vice versa. Did you know that having a mixed marriage where you've got a Democrat and a Republican who are married, only 8% of marriages, they disagree on politics? Now, I would say that makes sense, especially in our current situation. But I would love to know if the 8% of the people, I wonder if they have better results of staying married or worse. You know, if the 8% who do get married and one's a Democrat, one's a Republican, if they can stay married longer, maybe we learn something. But if they get divorced much faster, maybe we've learned something else. I'd love to know that. That'd be the stat I'd like to see. But we are not surprised that the country is so divided that we can't reproduce. That's right. The country is so divided that we've lost the ability to reproduce at replacement level. And I think this is a big part of it. You know, it used to be that if somebody was mildly leaning in the other direction on politics, you wouldn't even care that much. It just wouldn't even be part of your, if they didn't watch TV and go to events, they just sort of mildly had an opinion, maybe even would vote differently than you. That's not a big deal. But today everybody's an activist. Everybody either has to love Trump or hate him. And he's the devil. You can't really have that in your house. You can't have that kind of disagreement in your house.
All right. Here's an update on Hamas and Gaza. And this is from Saul Sadka on the X platform. Seems to be pretty tapped into what's going on over there. So here are the claims from Saul. And I know he's smart. I don't know too much about him, but he follows me on X, so obviously he's pretty smart just like the rest of you. Anyway, he says that in a longer post that I recommend you read because it's really interesting, he says the Hamas are contained and almost totally defeated. So there's as much containment as there is defeat, meaning that allegedly 17,000 of the Hamas enemies were killed already at the cost of 330 Israeli soldiers who died. And they've got 5,000 prisoners of war and they're taking out many more as they keep fighting. But apparently now Israel has succeeded in creating what is called strategic corridors. So it looks like they're putting Gaza into sort of a grid, not a symmetrical grid where it's boxes or anything like that, but they're basically breaking Gaza into parts where if you wanted to get from one of those parts to the other, you'd have to go across some kind of strategic corridor and that would be very dangerous because the IDF would control it. Now, so that gives them the ability to stop weapons and resupply of at least weapons. And it also isolates, in one part of Gaza they think even Sinwar's area, the Hamas. So they think whatever's left of the leadership is in one little section that's now completely surrounded and they can't resupply and they can't get out. So that would suggest that Israel's plan of what they call total victory might be slow but is now guaranteed. Meaning that the only thing that could stop them from having 100% control over every body and hole in Gaza is that they're stopped before they get there. But nothing would stop them unless the external situation stopped them. So they now have complete control. It's a whole different situation. And by the way, this is what Israel said on day one, that the understanding of Gaza would be different. You know, it's not going to be the same place. So the whole conversation about two-state solution, I don't see that happening. But it's not up to me, so I'm not giving you an opinion and I'm not giving you a preference. I'm just observing like the rest of you. And I don't see any chance that there would be a two-state solution. To me that just sounds like something that people have to say so that they don't look like they're monsters. It's just something you say. I used to think it was real, by the way. Actually at one point I was in favor of it. But then I realized it doesn't matter what I'm in favor of. At some point I realized I have nothing to do with that. I'm just watching. So you can predict, but what you're in favor of doesn't make any difference.
All right, that, ladies and gentlemen, is all I have. I'm going to say bye to the YouTube and Rumble folks. I'm going to talk to privately the people on Locals if I can remember to hit the correct button this time. And as everybody confirmed that we didn't stream on X, maybe we did. Did anybody see it on X anyway?
let's see oh we got problems don't we it looks like we successfully logged into Rumble and locals and it looks like neither You.
Tube nor X have gone live what would that be do you think so do you think You.
Tube is cutting off Rumble well you're all here and I'm here so interesting so it's just going to be Rumble and uh Rumble in locals today do you think I should try restarting it what do you think probably not if I if I get out and get back in I think all it's going to do is start where it is all right well we're just going to call that a uh technical problem it's not going to slow us down a bit but I just got demonetized so we'll see if the show is any better once I'm demonetized oh look we've got some You.
Tube people coming in now oh that's interesting so You.
Tube's online it looks like only X is failing I wonder why don't know good morning everybody and welcome to the highlight of your entire life if you'd like this to go up to a level that you can't even understand with your tiny shiny human brain well all you need is a cup or muger glass a tankered shell s Dy a canteen Jugger flask a vessel of any kind to fill it with your favorite liquid I like coffee and join me now for the unparallel pleasure the dopamine it day the thing that makes everything better it's called the simultaneous Sip and wow it happens now go so good so good well here's some science updates and we'll talk about the DNC and Harris and RFK Jr and UFOs and anything else you want to talk about but just so you know all the cool things that are coming according to wired uh mRNA technology could be used to make your damaged liver good again without a transplant how about that there's actually a technology that can heal a mouse's liver not completely apparently but it makes a big difference so we might be on the uh the verge of giving you new organs with a shot can you imagine that oh my organs are failing that's okay come here I'll give you a shot and then all your organs start rebuilding themselves that's a real thing that that might actually be coming Well Medical Express publication says that there's some indication that THC that would be the active ingredient ingredient in marijuana reverses brain aging and enhances cognition in mice now you know what I'm going to say don't you you know what I'm going to say now I don't recommend marijuana for anybody because it's a medical product in my opinion I don't think marijuana has the recreational value that people use it for but medically medically has some real uses and uh they could have saved a little money because I will tell you that my own experience is that well I'm just going to say it I'll say it as directly as I can there isn't a chance in hell I would be meeting five deadlines a day creating new content without a little help my aging brain would not be able to sit down every single day and write seven new jokes I'm telling you my own experien is that it's a brain enhancer and to me it's obvious now I don't recommend it you should only talk to a doctor and don't drive a car and if you're under 18 it'd be stupid to do weed it would just ruin your life so I don't recommend it but on this one limited claim that uh they're talking about low doses by the way oh this is important they tested low doses now my experience is that if you're a daily let's say medical user you get used to it and then what would be a high dose for somebody else is kind of a low dose for you so it could be that I've been low dosing for a while anyway there's a trailer for a movie you know the advertisement for a movie called the trailer movie is a megalopolis but they had to remove the trailer because apparently included some quotes some praising quotes from critics that those critics never said how do you think they ended up with a bunch of quotes from critics about their movie that they never said well I don't know if there's um I don't know if there's a specific explanation of how went wrong but here's my guess hey chat GPT can you tell me what the critics say about the movie well so and so says it's the greatest movie and it will change your life okay and they write that down and they make they make the trailer with those quotes only to find out later that chat GPT literally made it up now the story doesn't say that's what happened but isn't it obvious if if you had to place a bet if you've used AI by the way you'll know this it does make stuff up I ask AI about myself just because that's the easiest thing to check it makes stuff up things I've never heard of awards I've never won um I mean it's just completely fantasizes about people so that's probably what happened but I have a standard for judging things like this and most other things I don't believe in judging people by their mistakes because if you did that You' just hate everybody all the time I mean humans are just making mistakes all over the place there's nobody you know who hasn't made mistakes that you think they shouldn't have so instead of judging people by their mistakes because nobody makes a mistake intentionally judge them by what they do when they get caught or when trouble happens and how do they respond well well here's how they responded I guess Lion's gate is the entity that put it out they said uh quote we offer our sincere apologies to the critics involved and to Francis Ford Copa and American zoto for their for this inexcusable error in our vetting process um we screwed up we are sorry almost perfect almost perfect I will accept it as completely um sincere sounding and they didn't look to blame anybody did they it would have been really easy to blame somebody nope lion gate said our our mistake we apologize but there's one thing missing one thing missing Steve Jobs knew how to do this the one thing missing is what are you going to do about it what are you going to do so you don't do it again so they said it was a mistake in the Ving process but just this little bit of improvement would have taken them to A+ it's already it's already an A minus is very acceptable I I think they did a good job with it but if they just said we're we're going to redo our vetting process maybe even telling us what went wrong you know we we relied on a internet search we're going to have to make sure that you know we verify things something like that so always you should you got to take full responsibility but then you got to say what you're going to do to not make that same mistake again that's perfect if you get that all right um You.
Tube apparently has some new feature that I'm also assuming is Aid driven something they wouldn't have been able to do before I think which is they're going to allow you premium users the people who pay to be on You.
Tube allow them to skip sponsored segments in You.
Tube videos now what would be a sponsored segment in a You.
Tube video what it would be like me giving a commercial for a product which I would never do because people would skip it now would You.
Tube be able to pick out that this is not a sponsored product but rather my own product and would would the AI make a distinction so when I say I've got a new book and the main reason I do social media so people could know if I have a new product if I tell people about my new product are they going to introduce a button so you can skip it I don't know is the AI smart enough to know that this is my product and that's very different than a sponsored advertisement I don't know we shall see but the effect of that would be to actually destroy uh a huge bunch of people who their entire money comes from doing sponsored commercials on Youtube I won't destroy it right away because people won't know the buttons there and maybe the feature doesn't work perfectly and blah blah blah and also you could always fast forward a video you you always had that ability but uh it might allow me to watch uh Joe Rogan stuff if it were on You.
Tube I I can't watch as much as Joe Rogan show is amazing I can't get past the ads I just my life is too short I don't have time for listening to a bunch of ads anyway here's something interesting um I saw a post from a user on X called Victorio who said in a few years people will not be able to function in society without a brain computer interface so that's sort of like the neuralink chip in your head um and Elon Musk commented at some point having a neuralink will be normal and that uh and and separately musk is predicting that uh in several years there could be tens of millions of humans who have a chip in their head and that would be approaching normal do you think that's going to be normal do you think that in your lifetime um you know all children will have a chip in their head I think he's right I think he's right and the reason is that AI is too powerful to be separate from humans in other words humans are going to have to absorb ABB the power of AI into themselves and it might be the chip that allows them to do it I don't I don't know if there's any plan to you know do that specifically but you could imagine all kinds of things that you'd want to do better and be competitive in an AI world you just might need a chip you you might not even be able to hold a job unless you've got a good chip in you yeah you could easily imagin in the future an employer saying uh we're only looking for people who have been chipped because when we you know give our new announcements and memos and stuff we don't want to send it by email uh we're just going to send it directly to the employees in their heads now I don't know if that will ever be possible with a neurl link by the way I don't know if it can I don't even know if it's two-way in that way or it could be or what but uh yeah you I I think musk is right it is inevitable that humans will have computer chip interfaces in their head I don't think there's any way around that Tucker Carlson has been uh uh I don't know do we say red pilled anymore about the chronic disease epidemic in America now RFK Jr and Nicole shanan have been in my opinion the primary message givers that the country is sick from our food our Pharma and maybe other stuff we don't know what but um Tucker says quote on a video recently if you look at the rates of chronic illness in this country it's destroying the country and it's an emergency it's an emergency that I would say supersedes all other emergencies now that's the key line the key line is that that's the emergency that's bigger than all the other emergencies that's that's like it came right out of my mouth or RFK Junior's mouth I do believe that the food supply the big farmer and maybe even the things that our our media is doing to us are so bad it's just killing America to the point where I'm not sure we could even be a competitive country if we let ourselves be just destroyed by these forces so the first step in doing anything about it would be acknowledging that it's a major major problem and I don't see I don't see Trump saying it and I don't see K haris saying it why is it that Tucker and I and RFK Jr and probably a lot of parents think this is the biggest problem in the country and by the way when I say the biggest problem in the country I mean by a lot I I mean that whatever is number two isn't really even close to this because I don't really think we have much of a risk of a nuclear war and I think climate change is sort of long-term manageable situation um I don't I don't think AI is going to kill us you know we have those are manageable risks but we don't have really any effort whatsoever to stop the fact that our environment's killing us like crazy now I I reposted uh youo Tucker's comments on X but I I wanted to add that you have to add mental illness to this because when when you're talking about chronic illness you aren't necessarily talking about the mental part now ADD the mental part so take the number of people who have a chronic illness one of the ones that we didn't get 100 years ago that's just something about modern living and then add to that the number of mental illness situations are that's modern that also we didn't have 100 years ago you get almost everybody you get almost everybody everybody has at least a mental problem that you wouldn't have had before and at least one chronic illness that you would never would have had before so yeah it's that bad but remember I always tell you that we make this mistake of thinking that the brain and the body can be looked at as separate machines that just have some connection and I say no no no they're not separate machines they're all just one thing your arms and your legs are what keep your your your brain healthy because if you get up and your arms and your legs take you into a forest suddenly your brain says Ah I'm a little relaxed now I'm in a forest so separating your body from your brain gets you all the wrong analysis so here's something to back that up at uh Michigan medicine the University of Michigan they found that uh mental health and chronic diabetes are strongly linked now you say to my you say well that's obvious Scott if if you get chronic you know if you get diabetes obviously you're going to be less happy to which I say yes that makes sense but it turns out that the correlation works both ways they think so the study shows that your mental illness might cause your diabetes but also your diabetes might cause your mental illness but if your mental illness causes your diabetes and your diabetes causes your mental illness you're kind of in bad shape if you get either one of those two things so that's just more evidence that your brain and your body have to be considered one one system all right um I don't know if you watched this it was kind of one of these wonderful moments in live television or was it live I think live is when uh I guess Fox News cut the must have cut Trump's feed off I think there were watching him uh do a speech so they cut it off and they went to the uh the Gutfeld J Gutfeld exclamation mark and I guess um Greg Gutfeld said on air you know since they cut off president Trump he said you've got my number give me a call so as guffi is doing his show his phone rings and it was Trump trump actually called him you he's on he's on air he like youo give me a call and next thing you know he's on the phone live to Trump he puts on the speaker phone and uh and Greg has to tell him you know the audience is here don't say anything don't don't say anything embarrassing and uh and then the funniest part the funniest part is that Greg had to do a show and and it wasn't really the most convenient thing to have a you know half hour conversation on your cell phone holding it up to your microphone on your chest so he needed to get he needed to get Trump off the phone the best part about it is have you ever had the situation where you're done with a phone call one of my exes had had a way to tell you that the phone call is done you know you'd be talking about some stuff you'd be going back and forth normal conversation then you hear on the other side of the phone anyway and then I know the conversation's done anyway so Greg was doing his his version of how do you get the president off the phone and I don't know that was the best part is trying is trying to give the ex-president of the United States maybe the future one you know the the bums rush off the phone you know once you've done your poite stuff it's time to move on anyway that was fun you should watch the video that um I just saw a h clip from uh Peter teal talking to um Joe Rogan I guess that interview happened several days ago but I hadn't seen this part and apparently Peter teal has this Theory that uh the reason that so many compromised people seem to be in power you know people that you would assume there would be some blackmail on you you just if you're if you're paying attention at all you look at our leaders and you say we got a lot of leaders that in my Suspicious Mind and based on what I've heard and what I see they all look black mailable you you've heard me say that right I've said that a number of times that they just have this black mailable vibe to them like there's something going on besides their political stuff that somebody could blackmail them for and Peter teal seems to think that it's a necessity to get ahead that if you're not blackmail the people who really run the country can't trust you they need to be able to control you and so they prefer people who have black mailable things that the public doesn't yet know now that would explain everything now when I say it it sounds a little crazy right when I say it seems to me like they're favoring black mailable people it sure looks that way but I don't have any evidence of that however when Peter teal says it um suddenly I think was I right but he didn't show any evidence either it's not like there's some scientific study but he is way more connected I think than I am in other words he would would be closer to the you know whatever is behind the curtain and for him to say this really got my attention it's certainly short of something that is confirmed but it looks like it and when you're your observations are so consistent over time it might be confirmation bias but it's certainly helpful to hear at least one other smart person who's well connected to say that's what it is well let's talk about that um DNC and KL Harris talked uh by the way um i' like to make an announcement if you stay till the end of my show today I've got a special guest uh Beyonce and after she's done Taylor Swift will'll do a couple of tunes I told her to keep it short and then George W Bush George W bush will be here as my special guest that's all completely true stop it stop acting like I just made that up this is the way you handle a big event I learned that from the DNC yes the DNC hinted that there would be a special guest so that people wouldn't turn off the TV before KL Harris was there and then rumors started online it's Beyonce but of course it wasn't it's Taylor Swift but of course it wasn't it's George W bush which was just stupid because of course it wasn't but it probably worked it probably kept their numbers eye the the number of lies that come out of the the Democrat side is just it's just breathtaking it's just everything all the time they they only got one mode anyway uh remember ex press secretary Jen saki she said on MSNBC that KL Harris well she was complimenting her and she said that K Harris is likable she's very likable if you meet her in person she's got this likable personal Vibe it's so likable that uh Jens saki said that uh she's as likable as Hillary Clinton with her magical charismatic quality so I saw a post from Eric abinanti he said that that should be the Republican slogan the Republicans should run on the idea that kamla Harris is as likable as Hillary Clinton you know a as funny as that comment is the thing that makes it funny is that it would actually work if if tomorrow the uh you know the Republicans erased every commercial that they have just just dumped them all got rid of all their signs all their slogans everything on their website and they just went with one sentence that K Harris is as like a as Hillary Clinton and never said anything else about politics he could win I'm not recommending it it's not going to happen but yeah in in my mind I say you know what nothing else makes a difference at this point everybody has a general idea what which direction the policies would be in both both cases you could just say she's a likable as Hillary Clinton I don't know how many people would register with that but it worked for me I saw the maze account on X say that the DNC is like one big support group for people who are imagining that Donald Trump has hurt them now that is the best summary it looks like a support group for people who imagined that Trump had hurt them but also imagined that he will hurt them again after the first time that they imagined he hurt him that really does capture everything if if you had heard that Framing and said we've got a Convention of people who uh have mental problems and their specific mental problems they believe that this one person Donald Trump has hurt them and he's coming back and he might do it again that really would explain 100% of Everything You observe that one frame wouldn't leave out a thing they do act exactly like he hurt them and they might do it again I don't know what they they're thinking but but they sure look that way well so K Harris gave her speech uh they made that same mistake they made once with uh Biden where they gave her a dark and for boting background and put her in a dark suit so she looked she looked uh professional she looked presidential but evil at the same time I'm sure you can do a background that doesn't make you look evil it could be done I I think I've seen Trump do it for example you have some nice lighting got a nice light background you know you got a bunch of flags she did have Flags but then she had this weird dark dark look that just looks Sinister big mistake on the design people I would say um but the only thing I learned from that is that Harris can still read because she didn't talk about policies which Trump was mocking her for she talked about her childhood don't care too much and then she told a bunch of obvious lies and things that would get uh Republicans killed and divide the country that uh she said Trump will set free violent extremists I don't think there's any chance of that do you he said he would pardon the January 6 people but do you really think he's going to Pardon anybody who was violent I doubt it I I I would think that that would be an exception to his pardons um she said that Trump was going to jail journalists and political opponents well did he ever say that has Trump ever said that he would jail journalists and political opponents I've never heard that have you now the question of whether he should I think is uh in the ballpark of nobody's Above the Law I mean they lawed him Beyond any reasonable level and if he decides to laware them back I wouldn't be terribly in favor of it because I think it would you know tear the country apart but he certainly has a right to do it provided that they have done real crimes and it's obvious right if they haven't done real crimes well no I don't want to laware anybody for that's what they did to him it's what they did to some of us you know in a way so she threw up all the all the hoaxes look pure evil to me um I got to say that whenever I see Trump demonized this way as someone who would jail journalists and political opponents and set free violent extremists it it feels personal meaning that she's really painting half of the country or I don't know 40% uh of the country as supporting this person which sort of would make you that person too if it were true I mean I regard these as simply not true but if you want to know how I take it I take it as you're attacking me I don't know do do Democrats get that feeling when Trump talks it feel like Trump is attacking them as as humans now I know that they don't like you know particular policies but does he say things that make you think he wants you to be dead because when I read this I think do you want me to be dead would you think you'd be better off if I support Trump and you think Trump's so dangerous wouldn't you be better off if I were dead so I mean to me that's really dangerous rhetoric and it gets worse we'll talk about Nancy py in a second anyway to me the weirdest attack is that Trump is in it for himself and it's the weirdest attack because it's the easiest one to debunk now Trump has never done that and I always wonder about that here here's the easiest debunk to Trump's only in it for himself and this is something that Trump is good at is putting it in the form of a question if you put it in the form of a question it's way more powerful debunk and here would be the question I would ask if I were Trump how could I possibly get anything that's good for me unless I do the best job for the country you know you're all watching right you understand everybody's watching everything a president does I only have one path to get something that's good for me and the Trump family I've got to do the best possible job for the country in public and let you watch it anything short of that is a failure for me personally if you think I'm this big old narcissist who's only in it for myself that's fine with me because the only way I can get anything that's you know good for my reputation or ego or family or even future income of the Trump family the only way anything good happens for me is if I absolutely nail it in giving the American people what they want and need and deserve so if you think there's some way I could benefit without you knowing it and it would be somehow bad for you did that happen in the first term now of course people will say but bu Jared Jared you know went off and got a deal in Saudi Arabia but he's not part of the administration and he's also not Trump anyway so I'm surprised he hasn't taken that one on straight on um msnbc's coverage was entertainingly ridiculous so Rachel madow looked at the camera and with great sincerity and emotion told her viewers this quote you will remember where you were she's talking about the Comm Harris speech it was so powerful that you will remember where you were the speech tonight from the vice president of the United States KL Harris really intr introducing herself to the nation uh you're going to remember where you were on this night this was an inflection point in history that's your News Network MSNBC it all looks like just mental health just screaming for help well how good are Trump's policies well Trump's policies are so good that his opponents decided not to talk about policies when competing against them they literally have to make up policies that are not his to have something to about what's the top thing in the country economics do they go after Trump on economics well good luck the the country thinks that he's better on economics so you don't do that how about the Border well good luck country thinks that Trump would be better on the border how about International relationships good luck country thinks that Trump would be better on that stuff so what do you have left you make up stuff look look at this 2025 Book Project 2025 these are all the things that Trump's going to do no he isn't he he already disavowed that book he had nothing to do with the creation of it uh he's going to round up he's going to round up all the journalists who don't like him no he's not nobody would be in favor of that there's no Republican who would be okay with arresting journalists because they didn't say good things about Trump nobody literally nobody would be in favor of that no that's not going to happen so if you have a an entire convention that lasts days and nobody can mention a real policy of trump they only can make up something so they have something to about that's a strong campaign I would love to be in the campaign that they can't talk about what you're really doing or have really done they can only talk about what you haven't done or won't do that's it now let's be fair does Trump do the same thing and mischaracterize the Harris policies he does it transparently so he would Trump will say something like she was in favor of this he'll acknowledge that her current view might be different but it's a it's a sign of her character now that's not what we're seeing from Harris we're seeing that he's going to do these things Trump says you know it's something you know about the character and she would probably bring these sensibilities into the office and that's actually a fair thing to say because if you say we know what somebody's past opinions are and it's not that far in the past it's reasonable to assume that they would bring that same mindset into the job what Harris does is say the opposite of what Trump plans to do so Trump will say I am not for a national ban on abortion at the federal level what they say is he's totally in favor of a national ban well that's the opposite of what he said he's not going to change his mind on that anyway um I saw a uh user named Dandy on X he said uh the only thing I can gather from this convention is that somehow they managed to sell the idea that they're running against the people in office who are also the speakers at the convention that's true if you want to know how deep the brainwashing is the Democrats ran against them eles saying that you know the things that they've been doing hadn't been working so you have to do it some other way and then they brought on brought as speakers the people who are the very people who hadn't been getting it done and I thought wow you can you can really brainwash the public to believe absolutely anything so it does seem to me that Harris is running against herself um and that's the weirdest thing I've ever seen and even Trump said uh he he joked about uh how she's had three and a half years to fix this stuff so she's running against herself she is uh let's see how did the political Consultants who we don't trust one bit because they're all in the bag for one candidate or another let's see Jonathan jate uh well-known political writer said quote Comm Harris gave the best AC acceptance speech I've ever seen well that does raise the question of how many he's ever seen maybe it's the first one but did anybody watch your speech and say that's the best speech I ever seen she never even talked better policies and all she did was lie in in really easily checkable ways and that was the best acceptance speech I've ever seen well there's this weird little uh weird little event that happened at the DNC that's getting a lot of play on social media and I don't know how to analyze this but I'll tell you what people are saying so there's a video of the wals family walking onto stage to you know accept the Applause or whatever and there there's four of them holding hands so there's two children and the parents and there's a point where wal seems to take his son's hand and sort of yank him almost angrily now it's very it's a very uh hard to spot thing if you were watching it live you probably wouldn't have noticed but on video you know you can see it a little more dramatically so maybe maybe it looked completely different live but it's hard to explain because when you see it you say why did he do that because it didn't look like the sun was not walking in the right direction I mean they were holding hands but he gave them like the yank the almost like a little it almost looked angry but there was nothing to be angry about that we could see now it needs to be said that his son I don't know what the right words are about special needs would that be the right phrase so son has some um some mental health problems I guess and when you add that to the fact that it looked like his father angrily gave him a yank in his hand I'm not sure that that's what happened by the way so I think I'm going to be um I'll talk about it as a story but I think I think I'm going to maybe surprise you a little bit and I'm going to back the parent on this so there's plenty of stuff for not liking Tim Walls like politically if you don't like his politics there's plenty to work with so you don't need you don't need to dig too deep to find reasons not support him as as a future vice president but since we can't we can't know their relationship we can't know what we can't read his mind um I will tell you that the sun did not react in any way that looked like it was a problem he didn't react to it at all so I feel like maybe it's a little creepy to get in you know to insert ourselves into that relationship whatever Tim is done to raise two kids that's not going to be my point of criticism we don't know his situation we don't know the son's thinking the son is clearly very much in favor of his father I mean he was crying with tears you know as his father was you know accepting the nomination so the kid himself looks like a really sweet kit and I don't think that he was any of the worst for whatever happened and it it could be that it may have been as simple as dad was getting his attention for something you know just make sure he kept him in the game so it might be the video makes it look worse than it is uh I I will I'm going to give you two opinions that seem like they're contradictory but maybe not when you see it on video it's disturbing so don't get me wrong I found it disturbing but there's too much we don't know and so to you know complete the story in our heads that's a little too far for me just we just don't know what that was about but it it raises a flag if you said raises a little flag I'd agree with you on that but I won't go so far as to say that therefore he's beating his children or something like that no evidence of that all right um let's see uh msnbc's uh Joy Reed was was talking about the quote men of the democratic party and uh she said they were portraying something that uh she called 21st century masculinity and some of the other MSNBC hosts were talking about it and the idea is that they're defining what a real man is so a real man is not you know Dana White with his muscles and his success and his confidence and his Swagger who needs that right uh um they're saying that a real man is somebody who can support a woman to be their leader so a real man is somebody who takes a secondary position to a strong woman in this case and uh all of those supportive uh caring empathetic things that women do a real man is going to be strong but also but also have these other characteristics here's my take on that it ain't a man if you have to explain it should I go on or is that enough if you have to explain it it's not a man the the the most the most obvious statement of what a man is is you can tell when you look at it if a woman has to explain to you that that's a real man I'm sorry that process doesn't work how about when I see Trump take a bullet and get back up and yell I say to myself that's a man did anybody need to explain that to me nobody needed to explain it no that was there was right now I'm not saying that everything that the quote real men do is you know acceptable and legal and appropriate not at all but I never wonder who the real men are are if you need to explain it to me and make a make an intellectual argument for who the real men are well that's sort of a tell anyway here's what Nancy Peli said uh I'm roughly uh paraphrasing her she said that Trump is a threat to the Democracy threat to freedom and she likened it to a Thomas pay and Lincoln situation and I said to myself Thomas Payne wasn't he the guy who said we need to pick up arms against our oppressors in fact you know during the Revolutionary War Lincoln Lincoln interesting choice wasn't Lincoln the president who was shot because he wasn't popular for everywhere for uh freeing the slaves um is Nancy police Pelosi giving the public permission to kill this guy that's what it looks like to me to me this looks like how you activate somebody like atomas Crooks somebody who's maybe not the greatest at understanding the world but can be weaponized by being told that if they would just do this one horrible thing you know shoot Lincoln at the Ford Theater you'll be maybe hiled as a hero to me this is a encouraging violence at a level where I ask myself where where is the uh where's the guideline on that at what point is that literally just invoking violence I believe you can get kicked off of X if you encourage violence am I wrong that would be one of the things that Free Speech has a you know somewhat acceptable you know limit to it if you encourage violence you get kicked off the platform which is why I tell you as often as possible I'm against violence in every context sometimes you can observe it and sometimes you you know you just know that it was inevitable but you can't encourage it my interpretation of her comments are that she walked right up to the line of encouraging the worst kind of violence against a political leader well I guess they're all bad but one kind affects the whole country so if I had to judge Nancy Pelosi and KL Harris on their ethics it would be the lowest grade there there isn't a grade below this unless you're actually murdering people yourself but getting right up to this line and knowing you're doing it this is obviously very intentional um that's the most disrespectful disgusting unethical immoral thing you'll ever see now let's check ourselves does Trump do this if Trump does it too then I'm going to say to myself oh now Trump does talk about illegal immigrants in a way that makes you say is this going to cause people to you know do violence against illegal immigrants has it yet I don't I don't I'm not familiar with any story in which a an American citizen did some violence to an immigrant because it was an immigrant or because that Trump said something I've never seen it so it does seem that what Trump does is talk about something we can all observe we can observe the people are coming across the border we can observe that some number of them murder so when he talks about that is that encouraging violence or is it encouraging us to defend ourselves from violence so I think Trump is still in the clearly acceptable range of discussion I don't think daneli is and I don't think K Harris is when they talk about was stealing your freedom and stuff and you know being an insurrectionist you know some of it is just normal political talk if if if a candidate says oh they're taking away your freedom that alone isn't going to cause violence because it just sounds like political talk but if you pair that with well he did try to take over the country once and he's this unstable crazy narcissist he's a psychopath doesn't care about anything but himself if you start adding it all together he sounds like somebody who's literally really dangerous in the real world which he's not as far as I can tell so that's that all right RFK Junior I I believe I heard that Trump has a secret guest today at his rally and we heard that RFK Jr has pulled out of Arizona from the presidential race which you wouldn't do if you were planning to stay in so the rumors seem to be pretty strong and consistent and we don't see any denials when there's plenty of time to deny for example Nicole Shanahan has not made it a denial and it looks like something's going to happen now I'm going to stop short of saying that the rumors are true so the rumors are that RFK Jr is going to endorse Trump and in return would you know get some role in the government I think it's going to be less than that I'm not saying those things won't happen but I think it by today's rally it might not be as strong as that it might be a little circumspect so it could be for example I'm just speculating now it could be that RFK Jr doesn't want to do an unambiguous complete endorsement of trump because that might be too far I mean the reason he was running against Trump and against Biden at the time was because he thought the two candidates didn't have the goods if he had from the very beginning thought everything Trump was doing was the good stuff he wouldn't have rot so here's what would make me feel like honesty had happened because I'll tell you the one thing that I most appreciate about Kennedy and Shanahan I don't think they lied about the other team can you give me any example H have either of them at anytime said something about the other candidates that you said well that's just a lie that's not true you just made up something so you can complain about it I don't think I saw it once did any of you see that did any of you see anybody in the Kennedy Shanahan campaign say anything that was an insult to any American or or something that was a clear political lie now now you have seen things where people interviewed Kennedy and accused him of lying in the past about vaccinations and stuff and then he gives us explanation and you can check for yourself but I haven't seen him get caught in an actual lie I've seen you know things interpreted that he said that he had to clarify Etc but it's very unusual to have somebody well two candidates that are that completely honest about what they want to do and what the other people want to do so here's where RFK JR could find a honest middle ground it's not going to look honest if it's a unambiguous endorsement of trump I wouldn't buy it honestly I wouldn't buy it it would look like that looks like a guy who wants a job or something I mean it just wouldn't it wouldn't sell here's what I think he can say president Trump and I do not agree on everything but the Democratic party has turned into a monstrosity and the president's approach to um border control and some other issues which I consider the important ones are far stronger than the other the other campaign and uh the Democrats have just completely Fallen apart and you just can't support that anymore now that would be completely honest we don't agree on every policy but there are some big big things in which Trump gets it right and the other side just can't be supported with what they're doing it's just too too dishonest Etc now I don't think that anything will happen in terms of a promise of a role in the administration unless it's something general like you know I I hope you could work in my Administration well you know maybe we can find a way to be productive you know so it's going to be some generalities about that um but I hope I hope that Kennedy is completely transparent about this not being an Embrace of all things Mega and then I think that I think he's a hero so he's already a hero in in my mind you know the important place the all the important things happen in my mind not in the real world but in my mind Kennedy and Shanahan are heroes because they did make this chronic illness medical situation um a top conversation and if and if you know endorsing Trump can make it an even higher priority that's that's hero stuff that's hero stuff that's even better than president in my opinion if he could pull that off it would be one of the greatest Feats in American productive American history you know where you're moving stuff in the right direction and and he got there without lying amazing really so what else has happened um Trump says he's not he didn't want any intelligence briefings which he could get as a candidate if he wanted because he's worried that he would get a he would get a briefing about some secret stuff and then the secret stuff briefing people would leak it and then everybody would think that Trump leaked it because they'd blame him so they tell him something they'd leak it and then they blame him for being the leak so Trump says that's what he's worried about is that is that a realistic worry that any briefings would be a setup to say that he leaked it I think so I think that is an actual a legitimate worry now I don't know if that's the reason he doesn't get him he might think that they're fake for example the intelligence people some of them have said out loud that they don't think they can trust him with the real intelligence and that they would give him like intelligence light you know the stuff without the good stuff if he knew that the only intelligence that they were going to give him was the obvious stuff and that they weren't going to tell him anything good unless it was a setup yeah there was no reason to be briefed you know every time Trump shows you a new version of reality you say to yourself why didn't I see that on my own here's the version of reality remember you used to think that watching the news was useful it's not it's all lies remember you when you thought science was honest and if the scientists agreed that pretty much guaranteed it was true nope no scientist agreeing doesn't mean anything what about um you know so basically the news is fake the data is fake the science are fake and now Trump is telling you that intelligence briefings are fake if I'd heard this 15 years ago I would say that's ridiculous that's ridiculous but now I think oh obviously they're fake because they don't want to tell them the good stuff so of course they're not going to they said it I mean you know one some of the top intelligence people have said it out loud we'd be afraid to give them the good stuff I think Brandon said that so yes Trump would get nothing he didn't already know because they would leave out the good stuff and it would just be a trap for them to say that he's a leaker so he's completely right not so much that the leak part is the important part but that the briefings would have no value what's he going to do with that is he going to change his policies cuz he heard a secret thing probably not yeah what's the point of it so so every time you think something is important and then you find out I thought my whole life this was important and then you find out it's not it's just a mind you it's just a mind spinner my mind is still spinning about the fact that it's true that national security briefings for the guy who's likely to be the next president wouldn't have any value like that's hard for me to get my head around but I do believe that in this specific case I believe it meanwhile the Georgia state election board they passed this new measure for the elections that the number of Voters casting ballots must match the number of ballots counted what is the story is the story that the new procedure is that the number of Voters has to equal the number of votes or is the story that it wasn't true before apparently the number of Voters didn't need to match the number of votes how about that so there's your there's your most secure election in American history where the number of Voters didn't need to match the number of votes until now now here's my second question um was this only an issue in Georgia was Georgia the only place where the number of Voters didn't have to match the number of votes the let me tell you as clearly as possible if the filter you put on our election system in terms of how fair and unrigged they are if the filter you put on it was the experts told me it was completely secure oh you're so lost you're so lost how about take it up a level all the experts agreed that it's the elections are too hard to rig it's very fair that doesn't mean anything all the all the experts agreed all the experts didn't check the machines all the experts can't even describe the system in every state how would the experts know if somebody hacked into it and was so good at it they could get away with with it what expert would know that here's the filter you should put on it not the experts said it's true put the dilber filter on it all right so you know what the dilver comic is it's about Mass incompetence being normal not the exception so that's the Dilbert filter Mass incompetence is universal and normal it's just that big companies are good at hiding it from their customers because the customer might just see the product so if you apply that to the Secret Service guarding the president suddenly everything makes sense now there is a question to whether they were extra incompetent intentionally that's still an open question but incompetence can explain just about everything you see in the news and when I look at the elections you've got 50 plus uh different entities doing handling elections you've got hundreds of people maybe thousands involved in every state they don't do the job every day as like paid paid employees or a lot of volunteers so they have to be retrained every time the process for the election itself changes every year for example this new Georgia uh procedure is new so you'd have to train people on that and I could go on and on about the complexity and the number of people involved but when you have this level of complexity you have that number of people involved they're not the permanent employees they just come in as needed for an election most of them every part of that screams that there isn't there isn't the slightest chance that we even know what's going on in the election it's the same filter I put on climate change yep there are all these thermometers around the world and we've got all these crack employees in different parts of the world checking those thermometers no there's no situation in in human history in which you could make that work that being a big complicated thing where you got different technology in different places and the environment's changing and the heat islands are moving and they're all different countries and different languages and they're they're checking these thermometers all about half the time they don't even check do do you think every single time in some other country the person goes through the junk and then writes down correctly you know the numbers from the machine the thermometer or sometimes do they say ah it's probably the same as last year I'll just bump it up at 0.1 and then you get paid the same whether you looked at it or just said you looked at it now maybe there's some logs where they would get caught if they did that but who checks the logs so my point is whenever you see any system that's vast and has lots of people involved it's always a mess W with those of you who have experience in large organizations of any kind can you confirm this for maybe the other people who don't have this experience if you've worked in any big entity would you confirm that they're all just a disaster if you know what's happening behind the curtain they're all a disaster it's just that over time some of these disasters can produce an i.
Phone and then you say wow industry is awesome all right um so KL Harris is trying to be pro-israel and pro Palestinian but uh apparently she can pull that off because her her customers don't care about anything except not having Trump in office yeah I think we should stop pretending that anybody's influenced by the policies except a handful of um Independence but people who would go to the DNC or even watch the DNC they don't care what the policies are they just want less Trump that's all they need so yeah Harris is pulling off the I'm I'm for both sides okay um so who's going to get the Boost from the uh DNC so you'd suspect the Democrats would get a little boost but it's working the other way um the polls might show a boost because I think most of the polls are rigged at this point with oversampling of Democrats but the betting markets turned negative on her so when she should have been getting a boost the people who had actual money to put on it they said I think we trust her a little bit less by the end of this so that's a pretty expensive uh event to put on to reduce your credibility anyway um now the daily wire says the betting sites to betting sites have moved in Trump's Direction they think part of it could be that revision of the jobs thing 88,000 jobs revised which means that the biomics wasn't working nearly as well as they've been claiming and now we know and the other part might be the Kennedy alleged potential endorsement so the betting markets might be ahead of reality there all right uh there's a h article on sa poost as in psii um the Democrats rarely have Republicans as romantic partners and vice versa did you know that um having a mixed marriage where you got a Democrat and a republican were married uh only 8% of marriages they disagree on politics now I would I would say that makes sense especially in our current situation but um I would love to know if the marriage where the the 8% of the people I wonder if they have better results of staying married or worse you know if the 8% who do get married and one's a Democrat one's a republican if they can stay married longer maybe we learn something but if they get divorced much faster maybe we've learned something else I'd love to know that that'd be that'd be this stat I'd like to see but we are not surprised that the the country is so divided that we can't reproduce that's right the country is so divided that we've lost the ability to reproduce a replacement level and I think this is a big part of it you know it used to be that if somebody was you know mildly leaning in the other direction on politics you wouldn't even care that much it just wouldn't even part of your you know if they didn't watch TV and you know go to events they just sort of mildly had an opinion maybe even would vote differently than you that's not a big deal but today everybody's an activist everybody either has to love Trump or hate him and he's the devil you can't really have that in your house you can't have that kind of disagreement in your house all right here's an update on H Hamas and Gaza and is this is from Saul sadka on the xplatform seems to be pretty tapped into what's going on over there so here here are the claims from Saul um and I know he's smart I don't know too much about him but he follows me on X so obviously he's pretty smart just like the rest of you follow me anyway he's he says that in a longer post that I recommend you read because it's really interesting he says the humas um are contained and almost totally defeated so there's as much containment as there is defeat meaning that uh allegedly 177,000 of the humas enemies were killed already and uh at the cost of 330 um Israeli soldiers who died and they've got 5,000 prisoners of war and they're you know taking out many more as they keep fighting but apparently now Israel has succeeded in creating what is called strategic corridors so it looks like they're uh putting Gaza into sort of a grid not not a um symmetrical grid where it's you know boxes or anything like that but they're covering they're they're basically breaking Gaza into Parts where if you wanted to get from one of those parts to the other you'd have to go across some kind of strategic Corridor and that would be very dangerous because the IDF would control it now so that gives them the ability to stop you know weapons and resupply of of at least weapons and it also isolates in one part of Gaza they think even sinir is areas they the Hamas so they think the whatever's left of the leadership um is in one little section that's now completely surrounded and they can't resupply and they can't get out so that would suggest that Israel's plan of what they call Total Victory um might be slow but is now guaranteed meaning that the only thing that could stop them from having 100% control over you know every body and hole in Gaza is that they're stopped before they get there but nothing would stop them unless the external situation stopped them so they now have have complete control um it's a it's a whole different situation and by the way this is what Israel said on day one that the the the understanding of Gaza would be different you know it's not going to be the same place so the whole conversation about uh two State solution I don't see that happening but it's not up to me so I'm not giving you an opinion and I'm not giving you a preference I'm just observing like the rest of you and I don't see any chance that there would be a two-state solution to me that just sounds like something that people have to say so that they don't look like they're monsters it's just something you say I used to think it was real by the way actually at one point I was in favor of it but then I realized it's it doesn't matter what I'm in favor of at some point I realized I have nothing to do with that I'm just watching so you can predict but what you're in favor of doesn't make any difference all right that ladies and gentlemen is all I have I'm going to say bye to the You.
Tube and Rumble folks I'm going to talk to privately the people on uh locals if I can remember to hit the correct button this time and uh as everybody confirmed that we didn't stream on X maybe we did did anybody see it on x anyway uh e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e
let's
see oh we got problems don't
we it looks like we successfully logged
into Rumble and
locals and it looks like neither YouTube
nor X have gone
live what would that be do you
think so do you think YouTube
is cutting off
Rumble well you're all here and I'm here
so interesting so it's just going to be
Rumble and uh Rumble in locals
today do you think I should try
restarting it what do you
think probably
not if I if I get out and get back in I
think all it's going to do is start
where it is all right well we're just
going to call that a uh technical
problem it's not going to slow us down a
bit
but I just got
demonetized so we'll see if the show is
any better once I'm
demonetized oh look we've got some
YouTube people coming in now oh that's
interesting so YouTube's online it looks
like only X is
failing I wonder why don't know
[Music]
good morning everybody and welcome to
the highlight of your entire life if
you'd like this to go up to a level that
you can't even understand with your tiny
shiny human brain well all you need is a
cup or muger glass a tankered shell s Dy
a canteen Jugger flask a vessel of any
kind to fill it with your favorite
liquid I like coffee and join me now for
the unparallel pleasure the dopamine it
day the thing that makes everything
better it's called the simultaneous Sip
and wow it happens now
go so good so good well here's some
science updates and we'll talk about the
DNC and Harris and RFK Jr and UFOs and
anything else you want to talk about but
just so you know all the cool things
that are
coming according to
wired uh mRNA technology could be used
to make your damaged liver good again
without a transplant how about that
there's actually a technology that can
heal a mouse's liver not completely
apparently but it makes a big difference
so we might be on the uh the verge of
giving you new organs with a shot can
you imagine that oh my organs are
failing that's okay come here I'll give
you a shot and then all your organs
start rebuilding themselves that's a
real thing that that might actually be
coming Well Medical Express publication
says that there's some indication that
THC that would be the active ingredient
ingredient in marijuana reverses brain
aging and enhances cognition in
mice now you know what I'm going to say
don't you you know what I'm going to
say now I don't recommend marijuana for
anybody because it's a medical
product in my opinion I don't think
marijuana has the recreational value
that people use it for but medically
medically has some real uses and uh they
could have saved a little money because
I will tell you that my own experience
is that well I'm just going to say
it I'll say it as directly as I can
there isn't a chance in hell I would be
meeting five deadlines a day creating
new
content without a little
help my aging brain would not be able to
sit down every single day and write
seven new
jokes I'm telling you my own experien is
that it's a brain
enhancer and to me it's
obvious now I don't recommend it you
should only talk to a doctor and don't
drive a car and if you're under 18 it'd
be stupid to do weed it would just ruin
your life so I don't recommend it but on
this one limited claim that uh they're
talking about low doses by the way oh
this is important they tested low
doses now my experience is that if
you're a daily let's say medical user
you get used to it and then what would
be a high dose for somebody else is kind
of a low dose for you so it could be
that I've been low dosing for a
while anyway there's a trailer for a
movie you know the advertisement for a
movie called the trailer movie is a
megalopolis but they had to remove the
trailer because apparently included some
quotes some praising quotes from critics
that those critics never said how do you
think they ended up with a bunch of
quotes from critics about their movie
that they never said well I don't know
if there's um I don't know if there's a
specific explanation of how went wrong
but here's my
guess hey chat
GPT can you tell me what the critics say
about the
movie well so and so says it's the
greatest movie and it will change your
life okay and they write that down and
they make they make the trailer with
those quotes only to find out later that
chat GPT literally made it up now the
story doesn't say that's what happened
but isn't it obvious
if if you had to place a bet if you've
used AI by the way you'll know this it
does make stuff up I ask AI about myself
just because that's the easiest thing to
check it makes stuff up things I've
never heard of awards I've never won um
I mean it's just completely fantasizes
about people
so that's probably what happened but I
have a standard for judging things like
this and most other things I don't
believe in judging people by their
mistakes because if you did that You'
just hate everybody all the time I mean
humans are just making mistakes all over
the place there's nobody you know who
hasn't made mistakes that you think they
shouldn't have so instead of judging
people by their mistakes because nobody
makes a mistake
intentionally judge them by what they do
when they get caught or when trouble
happens and how do they respond well
well here's how they responded I guess
Lion's gate is the entity that put it
out they said uh quote we offer our
sincere apologies to the critics
involved and to Francis Ford Copa and
American zoto for their for this
inexcusable error in our vetting
process um we screwed up we are
sorry almost
perfect almost perfect I will accept it
as
completely um sincere sounding and they
didn't look to blame anybody did they it
would have been really easy to blame
somebody nope lion gate said our our
mistake we apologize but there's one
thing missing one thing missing Steve
Jobs knew how to do this the one thing
missing is what are you going to do
about it what are you going to do so you
don't do it
again so they said it was a mistake in
the Ving process but just this little
bit of improvement would have taken them
to A+ it's already it's already an A
minus is very acceptable I I think they
did a good job with it but if they just
said we're we're going to redo our
vetting
process maybe even telling us what went
wrong you know we we relied on a
internet search we're going to have to
make sure that you know we verify things
something like that so always you should
you got to take full responsibility but
then you got to say what you're going to
do to not make that same mistake again
that's perfect if you get that
all right um YouTube apparently has some
new feature that I'm also assuming is
Aid driven something they wouldn't have
been able to do before I think which is
they're going to allow you premium users
the people who pay to be on YouTube
allow them to skip sponsored segments in
YouTube videos now what would be a
sponsored segment in a YouTube video
what it would be like me giving a
commercial
for a
product which I would never do because
people would skip it now would YouTube
be able to pick out that this is not a
sponsored product but rather my own
product and would would the AI make a
distinction so when I say I've got a new
book and the main reason I do social
media so people could know if I have a
new
product if I tell people about my new
product are they going to introduce a
button so you can skip it I don't know
is the AI smart enough to know that this
is my product and that's very different
than a sponsored
advertisement I don't know we shall see
but the effect of that would be to
actually
destroy uh a huge bunch of people who
their entire money comes from doing
sponsored commercials on
Youtube I won't destroy it right away
because people won't know the buttons
there and maybe the feature doesn't work
perfectly and blah blah blah and also
you could always fast forward a video
you you always had that
ability but uh it might allow me to
watch uh Joe Rogan stuff if it were on
YouTube I I can't watch as much as Joe
Rogan show is amazing I can't get past
the ads I just my life is too short I
don't have time for listening to a bunch
of
ads anyway here's something interesting
um I saw a post from a user on X called
Victorio who said in a few years people
will not be able to function in society
without a brain computer interface so
that's sort of like the neuralink chip
in your head um and Elon Musk commented
at some point having a neuralink will be
normal and that uh and and separately
musk is predicting that uh in several
years there could be tens of millions of
humans who have a chip in their head and
that would be approaching
normal do you think that's going to be
normal do you think that in your
lifetime um you know all children will
have a chip in their
head I think he's right I think he's
right and the reason is that AI is too
powerful to be separate from humans in
other words humans are going to have to
absorb ABB the power of AI into
themselves and it might be the chip that
allows them to do it I don't I don't
know if there's any plan to you know do
that specifically but you could imagine
all kinds of things that you'd want to
do better and be competitive in an AI
world you just might need a chip you you
might not even be able to hold a job
unless you've got a good chip in you
yeah you could easily imagin in the
future an employer saying uh we're only
looking for people who have been chipped
because when we you know give our new
announcements and memos and stuff we
don't want to send it by email uh we're
just going to send it directly to the
employees in their heads now I don't
know if that will ever be possible with
a neurl link by the way I don't know if
it can I don't even know if it's two-way
in that way or it could be or what but
uh yeah you I I think musk is right it
is inevitable that humans will have
computer chip interfaces in their head I
don't think there's any way around
that Tucker Carlson has been uh uh I
don't know do we say red pilled anymore
about the chronic disease epidemic in
America now RFK Jr and Nicole shanan
have been in my opinion the primary
message givers that the country is sick
from our food our Pharma and maybe other
stuff we don't know what but um Tucker
says quote on a video recently if you
look at the rates of chronic illness in
this country it's destroying the country
and it's an emergency it's an emergency
that I would say supersedes all other
emergencies now that's the key line the
key line is that that's the emergency
that's bigger than all the other
emergencies that's that's like it came
right out of my mouth or RFK Junior's
mouth I do believe that the food supply
the big farmer and maybe even the things
that our our media is doing to us are so
bad it's just killing America to the
point where I'm not sure we could even
be a competitive country if we let
ourselves be just destroyed by these
forces
so the first step in doing anything
about it would be acknowledging that
it's a major major problem and I don't
see I don't see Trump saying it and I
don't see K haris saying it
why is it that Tucker and I and RFK Jr
and probably a lot of parents think this
is the biggest problem in the
country and by the way when I say the
biggest problem in the country I mean by
a
lot I I mean that whatever is number two
isn't really even close to this because
I don't really think we have much of a
risk of a nuclear war and I think
climate change is sort of long-term
manageable
situation um I don't I don't think AI is
going to kill us you know we have those
are manageable risks but we don't have
really any effort whatsoever to stop the
fact that our environment's killing us
like crazy now I I reposted uh youo
Tucker's comments on X but I I wanted to
add that you have to add mental illness
to this because when when you're talking
about chronic illness you aren't
necessarily talking about the mental
part now ADD the mental part so take the
number of people who have a chronic
illness one of the ones that we didn't
get 100 years ago that's just something
about modern living and then add to that
the number of mental illness situations
are that's modern that also we didn't
have 100 years ago you get almost
everybody you get almost everybody
everybody has at least a mental problem
that you wouldn't have had before and at
least one chronic illness that you would
never would have had before
so yeah it's that bad but remember I
always tell you that we make this
mistake of thinking that the brain and
the body can be looked at as separate
machines that just have some connection
and I say no no no they're not separate
machines they're all just one thing your
arms and your legs are what keep your
your your brain healthy because if you
get up and your arms and your legs take
you into a forest suddenly your brain
says Ah I'm a little relaxed now I'm in
a forest so separating your body from
your brain gets you all the wrong
analysis so here's something to back
that
up at uh Michigan medicine the
University of Michigan they found that
uh mental health and chronic diabetes
are strongly linked now you say to my
you say well that's obvious Scott if if
you get chronic you know if you get
diabetes obviously you're going to be
less
happy to which I say yes that makes
sense but it turns out that the
correlation works both
ways they think so the study shows that
your mental illness might cause your
diabetes but also your diabetes might
cause your mental
illness but if your mental illness
causes your diabetes and your diabetes
causes your mental illness you're kind
of in bad shape if you get either one of
those two things
so that's just more evidence that your
brain and your body have to be
considered one one
system all right um I don't know if you
watched this it was kind of one of these
wonderful moments in live television or
was it live I think live is when uh I
guess Fox News cut the must have cut
Trump's feed off I think there were
watching him uh do a speech so they cut
it off and they went to the uh the
Gutfeld J
Gutfeld exclamation mark and I guess um
Greg Gutfeld said on air you know since
they cut off president Trump he said
you've got my number give me a
call so as guffi is doing his show his
phone rings and it was
Trump trump actually called him you he's
on he's on air he like youo give me a
call and next thing you know he's on the
phone live to Trump he puts on the
speaker phone and uh and Greg has to
tell him you know the audience is here
don't say anything don't don't say
anything embarrassing and uh and then
the funniest part the funniest part is
that Greg had to do a show and and it
wasn't really the most convenient thing
to have a you know half hour
conversation on your cell phone holding
it up to your microphone on your chest
so he needed to get he needed to get
Trump off the
phone the best part about it is have you
ever had the situation where you're done
with a phone
call one of my exes had had a way to
tell you that the phone call is done you
know you'd be talking about some stuff
you'd be going back and forth normal
conversation then you hear on the other
side of the phone
anyway and then I know the
conversation's
done anyway so Greg was doing his his
version of how do you get the president
off the
phone and I don't know that was the best
part is trying is trying to give the
ex-president of the United States maybe
the future one you know the the bums
rush off the phone you know once you've
done your poite stuff it's time to move
on anyway that was fun you should watch
the video
that um I just saw a h clip from uh
Peter teal talking to um Joe Rogan I
guess that interview happened several
days ago but I hadn't seen this part and
apparently Peter teal has this Theory
that uh the reason that so many
compromised people seem to be in power
you know people that you would assume
there would be some blackmail on you you
just if you're if you're paying
attention at all you look at our leaders
and you say we got a lot of leaders that
in my Suspicious Mind and based on what
I've heard and what I see they all look
black
mailable you you've heard me say that
right I've said that a number of times
that they just have this black mailable
vibe to them like there's something
going on besides their political stuff
that somebody could blackmail them for
and Peter teal seems to think that it's
a necessity to get ahead that if you're
not
blackmail the people who really run the
country can't trust you they need to be
able to control you and so they prefer
people who have black mailable things
that the public doesn't yet
know now that would explain everything
now when I say it it sounds a little
crazy right when I say it seems to me
like they're favoring black mailable
people it sure looks that way but I
don't have any evidence of that however
when Peter teal says it um suddenly I
think was I right but he didn't show any
evidence either it's not like there's
some scientific study but he is way more
connected I think than I am in other
words he would would be closer to the
you know whatever is behind the curtain
and for him to say
this really got my attention it's
certainly short of something that is
confirmed but it looks like it and when
you're your observations are so
consistent over time it might be
confirmation bias but it's certainly
helpful to hear at least one other smart
person who's well connected to say
that's what it
is well let's talk about that um DNC and
KL Harris talked uh by the way um i'
like to make an announcement if you stay
till the end of my show today I've got a
special guest uh
Beyonce and after she's done Taylor
Swift will'll do a couple of tunes I
told her to keep it short and then
George W Bush George W bush will be here
as my special guest that's all
completely true
stop it stop acting like I just made
that
up this is the way you handle a big
event I learned that from the DNC yes
the DNC hinted that there would be a
special guest so that people wouldn't
turn off the TV before KL Harris was
there and then rumors started online
it's Beyonce but of course it wasn't
it's Taylor Swift but of course it
wasn't it's George W bush which was just
stupid because of course it wasn't but
it probably worked it probably kept
their numbers eye the the number of lies
that come out of the the Democrat side
is just it's just breathtaking it's just
everything all the time they they only
got one mode anyway uh remember ex press
secretary Jen
saki she said on MSNBC that KL Harris
well she was complimenting her and she
said that K Harris is likable she's very
likable if you meet her in person she's
got this
likable personal Vibe it's so likable
that uh Jens saki said that uh she's as
likable as Hillary
Clinton with her magical charismatic
quality so I saw a post from Eric
abinanti he said that that should be the
Republican slogan the Republicans should
run on the idea that kamla Harris is as
likable as Hillary
Clinton you know a as funny as that
comment is the thing that makes it funny
is that it would actually
work if if
tomorrow the uh you know the Republicans
erased every commercial that they have
just just dumped them all got rid of all
their signs all their slogans everything
on their website and they just went with
one
sentence that K Harris is as like a as
Hillary Clinton and never said anything
else about politics he could win I'm not
recommending it it's not going to happen
but yeah in in my mind I say you know
what nothing else makes a
difference at this point everybody has a
general idea what which direction the
policies would be in both both
cases you could just say she's a likable
as Hillary Clinton I don't know how many
people would register with that but it
worked for me
I saw the maze account on X say that the
DNC is like one big support group for
people who are imagining that Donald
Trump has hurt
them now that is the best summary it
looks like a support group for people
who imagined that Trump had hurt them
but also imagined that he will hurt them
again after the first time that they
imagined he hurt him that really does
capture everything if if you had heard
that Framing and said we've got a
Convention of people who uh have mental
problems and their specific mental
problems they believe that this one
person Donald Trump has hurt them and
he's coming back and he might do it
again that really would explain 100% of
Everything You observe that one frame
wouldn't leave out a thing they do act
exactly like he hurt them and they might
do it
again I don't know what they they're
thinking but but they sure look that way
well so K Harris gave her speech uh they
made that same mistake they made once
with uh Biden where they gave her a dark
and for boting background and put her in
a dark suit so she
looked she looked uh
professional she looked
presidential but evil at the same
time I'm sure you can do a background
that doesn't make you look
evil it could be done I I think I've
seen Trump do it for example you have
some nice lighting got a nice light
background you know you got a bunch of
flags she did have Flags but then she
had this weird dark dark look that just
looks
Sinister big mistake on the design
people I would
say um but the only thing I learned from
that is that Harris can still read
because she didn't talk about policies
which Trump was mocking her for she
talked about her childhood don't care
too
much and then she told a bunch of
obvious
lies and things that would get uh
Republicans killed and divide the
country that uh she said Trump will set
free violent
extremists I don't think there's any
chance of that do you he said he would
pardon the January 6 people but do you
really think he's going to Pardon
anybody who was violent I doubt
it I I I would think that that would be
an exception to his
pardons um she said that Trump was going
to jail journalists and political
opponents
well did he ever say
that has Trump ever said that he would
jail journalists and political opponents
I've never heard that have
you now the question of whether he
should
I think is uh in the ballpark of
nobody's Above the Law I mean they lawed
him Beyond any reasonable level and if
he decides to laware them
back I wouldn't be terribly in favor of
it because I think it would you know
tear the country apart but he certainly
has a right to do
it provided that they have done real
crimes and it's obvious
right if they haven't done real crimes
well no I don't want to laware anybody
for that's what they did to him
it's what they did to some of us you
know in a
way so she threw up all the all the
hoaxes look pure evil to me um I got to
say that whenever I see Trump demonized
this way as someone who would jail
journalists and political opponents and
set free violent extremists it it feels
personal meaning that she's really
painting half of the country or I don't
know 40% uh of the country as supporting
this person which sort of would make you
that person too if it were true I mean I
regard these as simply not true but if
you want to know how I take it I take it
as you're attacking
me I don't know do do Democrats get that
feeling when Trump talks it feel like
Trump is attacking them as as humans now
I know that they don't like you know
particular
policies but does he say things that
make you think he wants you to be
dead because when I read this I think do
you want me to be
dead would you think you'd be better off
if I support Trump and you think Trump's
so
dangerous wouldn't you be better off if
I were dead
so I mean to me that's really dangerous
rhetoric and it gets worse we'll talk
about Nancy py in a
second anyway to me the weirdest attack
is that Trump is in it for
himself and it's the weirdest attack
because it's the easiest one to debunk
now Trump has never done that and I
always wonder about that here here's the
easiest debunk to Trump's only in it for
himself
and this is something that Trump is good
at is putting it in the form of a
question if you put it in the form of a
question it's way more powerful debunk
and here would be the question I would
ask if I were
Trump how could I possibly get anything
that's good for me unless I do the best
job for the
country you know you're all watching
right you understand everybody's
watching everything a president does I
only have one path to get something
that's good for me and the Trump family
I've got to do the best possible job for
the country in public and let you watch
it anything short of that is a failure
for me personally if you think I'm this
big old narcissist who's only in it for
myself that's fine with me because the
only way I can get anything that's you
know good for my reputation or ego or
family or even future income of the
Trump family the only way anything good
happens for me
is if I absolutely nail it in giving the
American people what they want and need
and
deserve so if you think there's some way
I could benefit without you knowing it
and it would be somehow bad for you did
that happen in the first term now of
course people will say but bu Jared
Jared you know went off and got a deal
in Saudi Arabia but he's not part of the
administration and he's also not
Trump anyway
so I'm surprised he hasn't taken that
one on straight
on um msnbc's coverage was
entertainingly ridiculous so Rachel
madow looked at the camera and with
great sincerity and emotion told her
viewers
this quote you will remember where you
were she's talking about the Comm Harris
speech it was so powerful that you will
remember where you were the speech
tonight from the vice president of the
United States KL Harris really intr
introducing herself to the
nation uh you're going to remember where
you were on this night this was an
inflection point in
history that's your News Network
MSNBC it all looks like just mental
health just screaming for help
well how good are Trump's policies well
Trump's policies are so good that his
opponents decided not to talk about
policies when competing against them
they literally have to make up policies
that are not his to have something to
about what's the top thing in the
country economics do they go after Trump
on economics well good luck the the
country thinks that he's better on
economics so you don't do that
how about the Border well good luck
country thinks that Trump would be
better on the border how about
International
relationships good luck country thinks
that Trump would be better on that stuff
so what do you have
left you make up stuff look look at this
2025 Book Project 2025 these are all the
things that Trump's going to do no he
isn't he he already disavowed that book
he had nothing to do with the creation
of it
uh he's going to round up he's going to
round up all the journalists who don't
like him no he's
not nobody would be in favor of that
there's no Republican who would be okay
with arresting journalists because they
didn't say good things about Trump
nobody literally nobody would be in
favor of that no that's not going to
happen so if you have a an entire
convention that lasts
days and nobody can mention a real
policy of trump they only can make up
something so they have something to
about that's a strong
campaign I would love to be in the
campaign that they can't talk about what
you're really doing or have really done
they can only talk about what you
haven't done or won't do that's
it now let's be fair does Trump do the
same thing and mischaracterize the
Harris
policies he does it
transparently so he would Trump will say
something like she was in favor of this
he'll acknowledge that her current view
might be
different but it's a it's a sign of her
character now that's not what we're
seeing from
Harris we're seeing that he's going to
do these things Trump says you know it's
something you know about the character
and she would probably bring these
sensibilities into the office and that's
actually a fair thing to say because if
you say we know what somebody's past
opinions are and it's not that far in
the past it's reasonable to assume that
they would bring that same mindset into
the
job what Harris does is say the opposite
of what Trump plans to do so Trump will
say I am not for a national ban on
abortion at the federal level what they
say is he's totally in favor of a
national ban well that's the opposite of
what he said he's not going to change
his mind on that
anyway
um I saw a uh user named Dandy on X he
said uh the only thing I can gather from
this convention is that somehow they
managed to sell the idea that they're
running against the people in office who
are also the speakers at the
convention that's true if you want to
know how deep the brainwashing
is the Democrats ran against them
eles saying that you know the things
that they've been doing hadn't been
working so you have to do it some other
way and then they brought on brought as
speakers the people who are the very
people who hadn't been getting it
done and I thought wow you can you can
really brainwash the public to believe
absolutely
anything so it does seem to me that
Harris is running against
herself um and that's the weirdest thing
I've ever
seen and even Trump said uh he he joked
about uh how she's had three and a half
years to fix this stuff so she's running
against herself she
is uh let's see how did the political
Consultants who we don't trust one bit
because they're all in the bag for one
candidate or another let's see Jonathan
jate uh well-known political writer said
quote Comm Harris gave the best AC
acceptance speech I've ever seen well
that does raise the question of how many
he's ever seen maybe it's the first one
but did anybody watch your speech and
say that's the best speech I ever
seen she never even talked better
policies and all she did was lie in in
really easily checkable ways and that
was the best acceptance speech I've ever
seen well there's this weird little uh
weird little event that happened at the
DNC that's getting a lot of play on
social media and I don't know how to
analyze this but I'll tell you what
people are saying so there's a video of
the wals family walking onto stage to
you know accept the Applause or whatever
and there there's four of them holding
hands so there's two children and the
parents and there's a point where wal
seems to take his son's hand and sort of
yank him almost
angrily now it's very it's a very uh
hard to spot thing if you were watching
it live you probably wouldn't have
noticed but on video you know you can
see it a little more dramatically so
maybe maybe it looked completely
different live but it's hard to explain
because when you see it you say why did
he do that because it didn't look like
the sun was not walking in the right
direction I mean they were holding hands
but he gave them like the yank the
almost like a little it almost looked
angry but there was nothing to be angry
about that we could see now it needs to
be said that his son I don't know what
the right words are about special needs
would that be the right phrase so son
has some
um some mental health problems I guess
and when you add that to the fact that
it looked like his father angrily gave
him a yank in his hand I'm not sure that
that's what happened by the way so I
think I'm going to
be um I'll talk about it as a
story but I think I think I'm going to
maybe surprise you a little bit and I'm
going to back the parent on this so
there's plenty of stuff for not liking
Tim Walls like politically if you don't
like his politics there's plenty to work
with so you don't need you don't need to
dig too deep to find reasons not support
him as as a future vice
president but since we
can't we can't know their relationship
we can't know what we can't read his
mind um I will tell you that the sun did
not react in any way that looked like it
was a problem he didn't react to it at
all so I feel
like maybe it's a little creepy to get
in you know to insert ourselves into
that
relationship whatever Tim is done to
raise two kids that's not going to be my
point of criticism we don't know his
situation we don't know the son's
thinking the son is clearly very much in
favor of his father I mean he was crying
with tears you know as his father was
you know accepting the nomination so the
kid himself looks like a really sweet
kit and I don't think that he was any of
the worst for whatever happened and it
it could be that it may have been as
simple as dad was getting his attention
for something you know just make sure he
kept him in the game so it might be the
video makes it look worse than it is uh
I I will I'm going to give you two
opinions that seem like they're
contradictory but maybe not when you see
it on video it's
disturbing so don't get me wrong I found
it
disturbing but there's too much we don't
know and so to you know complete the
story in our heads that's a little too
far for me just we just don't know what
that was about but it it raises a flag
if you said raises a little flag I'd
agree with you on that but I won't go so
far as to say that therefore he's
beating his children or something like
that no evidence of
that all right
um let's see uh msnbc's uh Joy Reed was
was talking about the quote men of the
democratic
party and uh she said they were
portraying something that uh she called
21st century
masculinity and some of the other MSNBC
hosts were talking about it and the idea
is that they're defining what a real man
is so a real man is not you know Dana
White with his muscles and his success
and his confidence and his
Swagger who needs that right uh um
they're saying that a real man is
somebody who can support a woman to be
their leader so a real man is somebody
who takes a secondary position to a
strong woman in this case and uh all of
those supportive uh caring empathetic
things that women do a real man is going
to be strong but also but also have
these other
characteristics here's my take on that
it ain't a man if you have to explain
it should I go on or is that
enough if you have to explain
it it's not a
man the the the most the most obvious
statement of what a man is is you can
tell when you look at it if a woman has
to explain to you that that's a real
man I'm sorry that process doesn't
work how about when I see Trump take a
bullet and get back up and yell I say to
myself that's a man did anybody need to
explain that to me nobody needed to
explain it no that was there was
right now I'm not saying that everything
that the quote real men do is you know
acceptable and legal and appropriate not
at all but I never wonder who the real
men are
are if you need to explain it to me and
make a make an intellectual argument for
who the real men
are well that's sort of a
tell anyway here's what Nancy Peli said
uh I'm roughly uh paraphrasing her she
said that Trump is a threat to the
Democracy threat to freedom and she
likened it to a Thomas pay and Lincoln
situation and I said to myself Thomas
Payne wasn't he the guy who said we need
to pick up arms against our
oppressors in fact you know during the
Revolutionary War
Lincoln Lincoln interesting choice
wasn't Lincoln the president who was
shot because he wasn't popular for
everywhere for uh freeing the
slaves um
is Nancy police Pelosi giving the public
permission to kill this guy that's what
it looks like to me to me this looks
like how you activate somebody like
atomas Crooks somebody who's maybe not
the greatest at understanding the world
but can be weaponized by being told that
if they would just do this one horrible
thing you know shoot Lincoln at the Ford
Theater you'll be maybe hiled as a hero
to me this is a encouraging violence at
a level where I ask myself where where
is the uh where's the guideline on that
at what point is that literally just
invoking
violence I believe you can get kicked
off of X if you encourage violence am I
wrong that would be one of the things
that Free Speech has a you know somewhat
acceptable you know limit to it if you
encourage
violence you get kicked off the platform
which is why I tell you as often as
possible I'm against violence in every
context sometimes you can observe it and
sometimes you you know you just know
that it was inevitable but you can't
encourage
it my interpretation of her comments are
that she walked right up to the line of
encouraging the worst kind of violence
against a political leader well I guess
they're all bad
but one kind affects the whole country
so if I had to judge Nancy Pelosi and KL
Harris on their ethics it would be the
lowest grade there there isn't a grade
below this unless you're actually
murdering people yourself but getting
right up to this line and knowing you're
doing it this is obviously very
intentional um
that's the most
disrespectful
disgusting unethical immoral thing
you'll ever see now let's check
ourselves does Trump do this if Trump
does it too then I'm going to say to
myself oh now Trump does talk about
illegal
immigrants in a way that makes you
say is this going to cause people to you
know do violence against illegal
immigrants has it
yet I don't I don't I'm not familiar
with any story in which a an American
citizen did some violence to an
immigrant because it was an
immigrant or because that Trump said
something I've never seen
it so it does seem that what Trump does
is talk about something we can all
observe we can observe the people are
coming across the border we can observe
that some number of them
murder so when he talks about that is
that encouraging violence or is it
encouraging us to defend ourselves from
violence so I think Trump is still in
the clearly acceptable range of
discussion I don't think daneli is and I
don't think K Harris is when they talk
about was stealing your freedom and
stuff and you know being an
insurrectionist you know some of it is
just normal political talk if if if a
candidate says oh they're taking away
your freedom that alone isn't going to
cause violence because it just sounds
like political talk but if you pair that
with well he did try to take over the
country once and he's this unstable
crazy narcissist he's a psychopath
doesn't care about anything but himself
if you start adding it all together he
sounds like somebody who's literally
really dangerous in the real world
which he's not as far as I can
tell so that's that all right RFK Junior
I I believe I heard that Trump has a
secret guest today at his rally and we
heard that RFK Jr has pulled out of
Arizona from the presidential race which
you wouldn't do if you were planning to
stay in so the rumors seem to be pretty
strong and consistent and we don't see
any denials when there's plenty of time
to deny for example Nicole Shanahan has
not made it a
denial and it looks like something's
going to happen now I'm going to stop
short of saying that the rumors are true
so the rumors are that RFK Jr is going
to endorse
Trump and in return would you know get
some role in the government I think it's
going to
be less than that
I'm not saying those things won't happen
but I think it by today's rally it might
not be as strong as
that it might be a little
circumspect so it could be for example
I'm just speculating now it could be
that RFK Jr doesn't want to do an
unambiguous complete endorsement of
trump because that might be too far I
mean the reason he was running against
Trump and against Biden at the time was
because he thought the two candidates
didn't have the
goods if he had from the very beginning
thought everything Trump was doing was
the good stuff he wouldn't have
rot
so here's what would make me feel like
honesty had happened because I'll tell
you the one thing that I most appreciate
about Kennedy and Shanahan I don't think
they lied about the other
team can you give me any
example H have either of them at
anytime said something about the other
candidates that you said well that's
just a lie that's not true you just made
up something so you can complain about
it I don't think I saw it once did any
of you see that did any of you see
anybody in the Kennedy Shanahan campaign
say anything that was an insult to any
American or or something that was a
clear political lie now now you have
seen things where people interviewed
Kennedy and accused him of lying in the
past about vaccinations and stuff and
then he gives us explanation and you can
check for yourself but I haven't seen
him get caught in an actual lie I've
seen you know things interpreted that he
said that he had to clarify Etc but it's
very unusual to have somebody well two
candidates that are that completely
honest about what they want to do and
what the other people want to do
so here's where RFK JR could find a
honest middle ground it's not going to
look honest if it's a unambiguous
endorsement of trump I wouldn't buy it
honestly I wouldn't buy it it would look
like that looks like a guy who wants a
job or something I mean it just wouldn't
it wouldn't sell here's what I think he
can say president Trump and I do not
agree on
everything but the Democratic party has
turned into a
monstrosity and the president's approach
to um border control and some other
issues which I consider the important
ones are far stronger than the other the
other campaign and uh the Democrats have
just completely Fallen apart and you
just can't support that anymore now that
would be completely honest we don't
agree on every policy but there are some
big big things in which Trump gets it
right and the other side just can't be
supported with what they're doing it's
just too too dishonest Etc now I don't
think that anything will happen in terms
of a promise of a role in the
administration unless it's something
general like you know I I hope you could
work in my Administration well you know
maybe we can find a way to be productive
you know so it's going to be some
generalities about that um but I hope
I hope that Kennedy is completely
transparent about this not being an
Embrace of all things Mega and then I
think that I think he's a
hero so he's already a hero in in my
mind you know the important
place the all the important things
happen in my mind not in the real world
but in my mind Kennedy and Shanahan are
heroes because they did make this
chronic illness
medical situation
um a top conversation and if and if you
know endorsing
Trump can make it an even higher
priority that's that's hero stuff that's
hero stuff that's even better than
president in my opinion if he could pull
that off it would be one of the greatest
Feats in
American productive American history you
know where you're moving stuff in the
right
direction and and he got there without
lying amazing
really so what else has happened um
Trump says he's not he didn't want any
intelligence briefings which he could
get as a candidate if he wanted because
he's worried that he would get a he
would get a briefing about some secret
stuff and then the secret stuff briefing
people would leak it and then everybody
would think that Trump leaked it because
they'd blame him so they tell him
something they'd leak it and then they
blame him for being the leak so Trump
says that's what he's worried about is
that is that a realistic
worry that any briefings would be a
setup to say that he leaked
it I think so I think that is an actual
a legitimate worry now I don't know if
that's the reason he doesn't get him he
might think that they're
fake for example the intelligence people
some of them have said out loud that
they don't think they can trust him with
the real intelligence and that they
would give him like intelligence light
you know the stuff without the good
stuff if he knew that the only
intelligence that they were going to
give him was the obvious stuff
and that they weren't going to tell him
anything good unless it was a
setup yeah there was no reason to be
briefed you know every time Trump shows
you a new version of reality you say to
yourself why didn't I see that on my own
here's the version of
reality remember you used to think that
watching the news was useful it's not
it's all lies remember you when you
thought science was honest and if the
scientists agreed that pretty much
guaranteed it was true nope no scientist
agreeing doesn't mean anything what
about um you know so basically the news
is fake the data is fake the science are
fake and now Trump is telling you that
intelligence briefings are
fake if I'd heard this 15 years ago I
would say that's
ridiculous that's ridiculous but now I
think oh obviously they're fake because
they don't want to tell them the good
stuff so of course they're not going to
they said it I mean you know one some of
the top intelligence people have said it
out loud we'd be afraid to give them the
good stuff I think Brandon said that
so yes Trump would get nothing he didn't
already know because they would leave
out the good stuff and it would just be
a trap for them to say that he's a
leaker so he's completely right not so
much that the leak part is the important
part but that the briefings would have
no
value what's he going to do with that is
he going to change his policies cuz he
heard a secret thing probably
not yeah what's the point of it so so
every time you think something is
important and then you find out I
thought my whole life this was important
and then you find out it's not it's just
a mind you it's just a mind spinner my
mind is still spinning about the fact
that it's true that national security
briefings for the guy who's likely to be
the next president wouldn't have any
value like that's hard for me to get my
head around but I do believe that in
this specific case I believe it
meanwhile the Georgia state election
board they passed this new measure for
the elections that the number of Voters
casting ballots must match the number of
ballots
counted what is the story is the story
that the new procedure is that the
number of Voters has to equal the number
of votes or is the story that it wasn't
true before
apparently the number of Voters didn't
need to match the number of
votes how about
that so there's your there's your most
secure election in American history
where the number of Voters didn't need
to
match the number of
votes until
now now here's my second
question um
was this only an issue in
Georgia was Georgia the only place where
the number of Voters didn't have to
match the number of
votes
the let me tell you as clearly as
possible if the filter you put on our
election system in terms of how fair and
unrigged they are if the filter you put
on it was the experts told me it was
completely
secure oh you're so
lost you're so lost how about take it up
a level all the experts agreed that it's
the elections are too hard to rig it's
very
fair that doesn't mean anything all the
all the experts agreed all the experts
didn't check the machines all the
experts can't even describe the system
in every
state how would the experts know if
somebody hacked into it and was so good
at it they could get away with with it
what expert would know that here's the
filter you should put on it not the
experts said it's true put the dilber
filter on
it all right so you know what the dilver
comic is it's about Mass incompetence
being normal not the exception so that's
the Dilbert filter Mass incompetence is
universal and normal it's just that big
companies are good at hiding it from
their customers because the customer
might just see the product
so if you apply that to the Secret
Service guarding the president suddenly
everything makes sense now there is a
question to whether they were extra
incompetent intentionally that's still
an open question but incompetence can
explain just about everything you see in
the
news and when I look at the elections
you've got 50 plus uh different entities
doing handling
elections you've got hundreds of people
maybe thousands involved in every
state they don't do the job every day as
like paid paid employees or a lot of
volunteers so they have to be retrained
every time the process for the election
itself changes every year for example
this new Georgia uh procedure is new so
you'd have to train people on that and I
could go on and on about the complexity
and the number of people involved but
when you have this level of
complexity you have that number of
people
involved they're not the permanent
employees they just come in as needed
for an election most of them every part
of that screams that there isn't there
isn't the slightest chance that we even
know what's going on in the
election it's the same filter I put on
climate change yep there are all these
thermometers around the world and we've
got all these crack employees in
different parts of the world checking
those
thermometers no there's no situation in
in human history in which you could make
that work that being a big complicated
thing where you got different technology
in different places and the
environment's changing and the heat
islands are moving and they're all
different countries and different
languages and they're they're checking
these thermometers all about half the
time they don't even
check do do you think every single time
in some other country the person goes
through the junk
and then writes down correctly you know
the numbers from the
machine the thermometer or sometimes do
they say ah it's probably the same as
last year I'll just bump it up at
0.1 and then you get paid the same
whether you looked at it or just said
you looked at it now maybe there's some
logs where they would get caught if they
did that but who checks the
logs so my point is whenever you see any
system that's vast and has lots of
people involved
it's always a
mess W with those of you who have
experience in large organizations of any
kind can you confirm this for maybe the
other people who don't have this
experience if you've worked in any big
entity would you confirm that they're
all just a disaster if you know what's
happening behind the curtain they're all
a disaster it's just that over time some
of these disasters can produce an iPhone
and then you say wow industry is
awesome all
right um so KL Harris is trying to be
pro-israel and pro Palestinian but uh
apparently she can pull that off because
her her customers don't care about
anything except not having Trump in
office yeah I think we should stop
pretending that anybody's influenced by
the policies except a handful of um
Independence but people who would go to
the DNC or even watch the
DNC they don't care what the policies
are they just want less Trump that's all
they need so yeah Harris is pulling off
the I'm I'm for both sides
okay
um so who's going to get the Boost from
the uh
DNC so you'd suspect the Democrats would
get a little boost but it's working the
other way um the polls might show a
boost because I think most of the polls
are rigged at this point with
oversampling of Democrats but the
betting markets turned negative on her
so when she should have been getting a
boost the people who had actual money to
put on it they said I think we trust her
a little bit less by the end of this so
that's a pretty expensive uh event to
put on to reduce your credibility
anyway
um now the daily wire says the betting
sites to betting sites have moved in
Trump's Direction they think part of it
could be that revision of the jobs thing
88,000 jobs
revised which means that the biomics
wasn't working nearly as well as they've
been claiming and now we know and the
other part might be the Kennedy alleged
potential endorsement so the betting
markets might be ahead of reality
there all right uh there's a h article
on sa
poost as in
psii um the Democrats rarely have
Republicans as romantic partners and
vice versa did you know that um having a
mixed marriage where you got a Democrat
and a republican were married uh only 8%
of
marriages they disagree on
politics now I would I would say that
makes sense especially in our current
situation but um I would love to know if
the marriage where the the 8% of the
people I wonder if they have better
results of staying married or worse you
know if the 8% who do get married and
one's a Democrat one's a republican if
they can stay married longer maybe we
learn something but if they get divorced
much faster maybe we've learned
something else I'd love to know that
that'd be that'd be this stat I'd like
to see but we are not surprised that the
the country is so divided that we can't
reproduce that's right the country is so
divided that we've lost the ability to
reproduce a replacement level and I
think this is a big part of
it you know it used to be that if
somebody was you know mildly leaning in
the other direction on politics you
wouldn't even care that much it just
wouldn't even part of your you know if
they didn't watch TV and you know go to
events they just sort of mildly had an
opinion maybe even would vote
differently than you that's not a big
deal but today everybody's an
activist everybody either has to love
Trump or hate him and he's the devil you
can't really have that in your
house you can't have that kind of
disagreement in your house all right
here's an update on H Hamas and Gaza and
is
this is from Saul sadka on the xplatform
seems to be pretty tapped into what's
going on over there so here here are the
claims from
Saul um and I know he's smart I don't
know too much about him but he follows
me on X so obviously he's pretty smart
just like the rest of you follow
me anyway he's he says that in a longer
post that I recommend you read because
it's really interesting he says the
humas um are contained and almost
totally
defeated so there's as much containment
as there is defeat meaning that uh
allegedly
177,000 of the humas enemies were killed
already and uh at the cost of
330 um Israeli soldiers who died and
they've got 5,000 prisoners of
war and they're you know taking out
many more as they keep fighting but
apparently now Israel has succeeded in
creating what is called strategic
corridors so it looks like
they're uh putting Gaza into sort of a
grid not not a um symmetrical grid where
it's you know boxes or anything like
that but they're covering they're
they're basically breaking Gaza into
Parts where if you wanted to get from
one of those parts to the other you'd
have to go across some kind of strategic
Corridor and that would be very
dangerous because the IDF would control
it now so that gives them the ability to
stop you know weapons and
resupply of of at least
weapons and it also isolates in one part
of Gaza they think even sinir is areas
they the Hamas so they think the
whatever's left of the
leadership um is in one little section
that's now completely surrounded and
they can't resupply and they can't get
out so that would suggest that Israel's
plan of what they call Total
Victory um might be slow but is now
guaranteed meaning that the only thing
that could stop them from having 100%
control over you know every body and
hole in Gaza is that they're stopped
before they get there but nothing would
stop them unless the external situation
stopped them so they now have have
complete
control um it's a it's a whole different
situation and by the way this is what
Israel said on day one that the the the
understanding of Gaza would be different
you know it's not going to be the same
place so the whole conversation about uh
two State
solution I don't see that
happening but it's not up to me so I'm
not giving you an opinion and I'm not
giving you a
preference I'm just observing like the
rest of you and I don't see any chance
that there would be a two-state
solution to me that just sounds like
something that people have to say so
that they don't look like they're
monsters it's just something you say I
used to think it was real by the way
actually at one point I was in favor of
it but then I realized it's it doesn't
matter what I'm in favor
of at some point I realized I have
nothing to do with that I'm just
watching so you can predict but what
you're in favor of doesn't make any
difference all right that ladies and
gentlemen is all I have I'm going to say
bye to the YouTube and Rumble folks I'm
going to talk to privately the people on
uh locals if I can remember to hit the
correct button this
time and uh as everybody confirmed that
we didn't stream on X maybe we did did
anybody see it on x
anyway
